The MS Excel online test assesses knowledge of organizing, calculating, analyzing, and visualizing data within a spreadsheet. This test requires downloading template files, performing required tasks within MS Excel (including the free web version), and uploading the file for automatic evaluation.
The assessment includes work-sample tasks such as:
- Writing formulas to perform calculations and look up data from a reference range.
- Organize and summarize large data sets with sorting, filtering, and pivot table tools.
- Creating and customizing charts to communicate data graphically.
A good candidate for any job requiring the use of spreadsheets should be able to use MS Excel to efficiently process data and create accurate reports.
Sample public questions
Your company sells products to customers in two cities, New York and San Francisco. You have been asked to calculate each product’s retail prices inclusive of sales taxes in these cities.
Specifically, you need to:
- Write formulas to calculate the retail prices, inclusive of sales tax, using the base price of each product.
- Make sure you reference cells A5 and B5 in your formulas.

What others say
Simple, straight-forward technical testing
TestDome is simple, provides a reasonable (though not extensive) battery of tests to choose from, and doesn't take the candidate an inordinate amount of time. It also simulates working pressure with the time limits.
