Attention to Detail and Time Management Test

You are working as a social media manager for a company that has specific expectations of how you will perform your work.

Compare those expectations with how you actually spent your time last week.

As a customer success specialist, you can only approve in-app purchase refund requests that are made within time limits determined by whether the customer is an adult or a child and whether the request came through the app store or by email.

NOTE: US customers use the date format MONTH/DAY/YEAR while Europeans use DAY/MONTH/YEAR. According to your company, a child is anyone born after 1/2/2010 for US customers and after the same date of 2/1/2010 for Europeans.

The table below gives the details you need to decide which customers' refund requests to approve.

Whose refund request should be approved?

To improve communications, your company's CEO gives you a list of meetings she wants you to schedule between all possible combinations of herself, the CFO, the COO, and the CCO. You come up with your own list to compare with hers.

Based on your list, which meetings are missing, mistaken, or misspelled on the CEO's list?

You need to schedule a critical meeting. You're available from 9:30am to 2:00pm.

Angela is available from 10:30am to 2:30pm.

Chris is available from 12pm to 4pm.

Everyone hates meeting during lunch but will if it's important.

When are all three of you available to start a one-hour meeting?

You have so many small tasks that you don't have enough time for your large project.

Which of the following tasks are good candidates for automation to save you time?

Your company has been working to add old paper invoices to their new digital system. You have been tasked with checking the implementation to ensure that the details from the paper copy have been entered into the new system accurately.

Compare each item in the list below to see if the version displayed on your screen matches the paper copy.

In the Match? column, choose Y if the items match or choose N if they do not match.

Your staff has submitted the two reports below, which cover the sales and bonus data for seven employees.

Which employees have different information listed between the reports?

You are covering for a coworker who is out on leave. Your coworker has left you a voicemail message specifying the tasks you will need to do for them.

Hi there! Thanks so much for covering for me. So, the main thing you need to do is complete the monthly revenues spreadsheet. You can do that by looking up the latest ad revenue in the reporting from marketing. Ok, so after you do all of that, go ahead and check my email and then my voicemail to see if there are any requests from the executives. If there are any such requests, do those first unless you have an emergency request from another department. Once you’re done with fulfilling requests, please water my desk plant after you turn off the computer. Oh, wait, I should have mentioned a couple of things: you have to log in with manager access in order to see the marketing reports, and you'll need to send me an update email right after you finish handling the requests. OK, thanks again. This is a big help! I owe you lunch when I’m back.

Place the tasks in the correct order.
