"ללכת?"
Translation:Shall we go?

It's the literal translation. Whether it is a good translation is another question (and a good question).
That’s not ‘shall we go?’. That would be ‘?הוֹלְכִים’ or ‘?שֶׁנֵּלֵךְ’. This should be ‘should I go?’.
The standart way is to say lakakhat לקחת (the question would be lashevet o lakakhat?), I would expect the employer to understand you, though
It is interesting that this would be "to take" or "to sit" instead of to go! I love seeing those little differences in language use and choice of words.

Could this also mean, "Shall we walk?"?
If you remove the question mark does it mean, "Let's go!"?

For "shall we walk", שנצעד? (she-nitz'ad?) would be better.
No, it wouldn't mean "let's go!" if we remove the question mark. For that you'd say בוא נלך (bo nelech) or maybe קדימה (kadima) or there are other ways of saying it.
