Spreadsheet Assessment
2 skills, ~40 minutes
The spreadsheet assessment is designed to allow for multiple correct approaches to answering each question. For example, a question might be answered using a Pivot Table, Filtering, or an Equation. The candidate can use whichever approach with which they are most comfortable.
