About the test

The Office Manager test assesses the ability to monitor, review, and be responsible for systems related to the overall administration of a business, including purchasing, facility management, and record keeping.

The assessment includes solving work-sample tasks, such as:

  • Creating, managing, and evaluating budgets.
  • Prioritizing, scheduling, and supervising the work of self and others.
  • Communicating appropriately and effectively.

A good office manager or chief administrative officer needs strong business math, time management, attention to detail, and communication skills to responsibly manage the overall administration of a business.

Working with Time

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.

  Adult Time Limit for Approval Child Time Limit for Approval
App Store Refund Request 4 hours after purchase 8 hours after purchase
Email Refund Request 8 hours after purchase 16 hours after purchase

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.
