In this Excel interview test, you'll be tested in your excel proficiency through a 5-question Excel interview test from easy to hard. The first question is on conditional formatting, the second on using the IF statement and relative referencing. Thirdly, you'll have a data cleaning question using the textsplit formula of the text to columns feature. Fourth, you'll have a data analytics question using pivot tables, and finally you'll hvae a lookup question where you'll learn to use the XLOOKUP and the INDEX MATCH. At the very end, we'll also have a bonus question using the find & replace tool in Excel.

i learnt something new with the CTRL+H trick, but you still have the space after your sentence, so a cleaner formula would be TEXTBEFORE. In cell D6 enter =TEXTBEFORE(C6," (").
Thank you Kenji for the test. I have finished the test in 7 min. In the future i want you to make a more video like this. it will help our Excel knowledge. Love you man.
Thanks for the suggestion! Will keep it noted :)
Really great prep help!! Cheers Kenji
thank you for going over both the text split formula and the text to columns options. It makes it very accessible.
@KenjiExplains, I've been watching your videos for some time now, I was able to complete all the questions without following along with the video, however I will watch now to get other ideas on how to solve. Thank you!
Excellent Excel proficiency exercises. Keep up the good work!
This exercise is great but I thought of a better solution for Q5 which uses SUMIF: =SUMIF(B6:B16,F6,D6:D16). If Sarah was to work part-time in one department and part-time in another, then she would occur twice in the table, so you would need to sum for the two occurences. XLOOKUP would only reference the first occurence. In your example, Xlookup works fine, but only because Sarah only occurs once in the table. Also if instead you wanted to know the revenue for a department like Sales (3 occurences), then SUMIF would be better.
That bonus question got me. Thank you! 😊
had no idea about the * in the bonus q thanks
awesome quite niche XD
Thank you. I took a timed test, only 30 seconds per question and that was daunting.
Awesome video 🤝 Here's an additional solution for your bonus question that works when you need to erase text after or before specific characters. So, you can use the same function REPLACE (CTRL+F) and use (* to delete whole text after it finds last character "( " , or if you want to delete text before certain character you can use logic *( to delete all text before last character in this case "(".
Best regards, Stevan
For the bonus I probably would have used textsplit or text to columns. But Learning the wildcard option in find and replace it great. I can see myself using that for quick results. Thanks!
Loved that bonus answer
Hi Kenji, I used the function textbefore for the bonus question and used "(" as the delimiter. That worked too.
Great video and a diverse array of fundamental Excel questions. Thank you Kenji!
For the BONUS QUESTION, I'd go by the formula *=LEFT($C6,SEARCH("(",$C6)-2)* since the parentheses appear only at the end of company names in column C.
That was fun! I even got the bonus question because I learned it from you, on another video. 😆🙏
Awesome, thanks Kenji!
thanks for watching :)
tysm man appreciates it.
Really great prep help!! Cheers, Kenji!!, could you do a video on how to make a quality MIS report in excel
So an excel test I had the other week involved using LEFT to pull a code from a larger file name, using those codes for a v look up on a 2nd sheet. A pivot table for client costs, and some basic maths formula
Hi Kenji, for the last question, I would use text to columns separated by (; your solution is obviously more elegant
Good Questions Kenji😀
Man i like the way you explain things
I have passed your test using the exact same solutions shown in this video. You are truly my master ^_^
Thank you ❤❤❤
Thank you
I didn’t know about that bonus question 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Finally! A video that easily explains Index Match and how is compares to Xlookup. Thanks Kenji!
Glad it was helpful!
@@KenjiExplains As always! Please keep 'em coming, these videos help way more than you can imagine.
Thanks!
Thank you very much! 🚀
Great video! I think that for Q5, a sumif would've been useful in case there were multiple Sarah values in a larger dataset.
Great video thanks Kenji. I did another of your excel common questions earlier which really helped when I did this one. Chuffed with myself 🙂
That's awesome to hear! Best of luck if you have an Excel interview coming up :)
I used =LEFT(C6,FIND("(",C6)-1) in a new column for the bonus question, had no idea it was possible the other way! Will definitely be using that one going forward
Awesome! Thanks for watching :)
Love u bro❤
Great :)
Hi, I'm better than I thought! For the bonus question to leave the original data intact, should someone need the stuff in parentheses later, I would have used SUBSTITUTE().
Off topic, autofill is magic at learning by example. You type in what transformations you want for the first few rows and autofill does the rest.

Hi Kenji, pls the bonus question i cud not solve it from my end and my excel is 2021. And thanks for your videos i learn alot from you.
best interviewer and the best applicant 😂💞🙏🏽
top man
With the bonus question: would the extra space cause any issues e.g. when sorting? My plan was to find-replace “ (” to some other symbol not used, then Text to Columns, splitting via that symbol, and only retaining the left column
Actually the Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen in the Chicago Bulls, and John Lennon and Paul McCartney tandem in the Beatles winning formula indirectly infused a glimpse of what's gonna be ahead of time that works.
In question 5, I can also use SUMIF function too
Galing mo sir sa push button, chicks drawer Yan, kaya nga ako nag aaral Dyan, he he.
Neat trick on the bonus question. Shouldn't you add a space in front of the open parenthesis though? Otherwise if you try to do a lookup for the name, you wont get a match because of the space at the end that isnt instantly noticeable
Please make more videos of excel test . Lots of love ❤❤
we'll note it thank you!
Thanks for new formulas I've just learned usually done for corporate departmental earnings calculation and presentation. It's like having a peek into the corporate world of meticulous data accuracies. Can AI in a specific department be programmed to update or correct data and files in real time for numerous data files for for personnel reviews complete with displays and presentations to proof check any probable errors and having to update newly entered data's in real time as an assessment tools to asses AI performance and to double check also for any human errors aside from supervisorial reviews and checks in Data and files segregation by systematic orderings of entered data's pre prorammed as such like having second opinion like in medical check ups and transforming AI solutions as a human assistance partner in real time accurate information enterings for very large bulk of data files only at the same time as a tool mechanism of pre programmed data storage facilitator.
Great
thank you!
Very Good Kenji Carry on
please work on Power BI 🥺🥺🥺🥺
Good morning Kenji, I have a formula that use to link different sheets, but when i new information to the main sheet, the Links become dead, how do maintain the link with additional information that changes the location from original sheet. Again the main is a master list with different information, but i have to isolate a column to another sheet. Thank you in advance
Hey Kenji, i hope you are doing well, just a quick question for Q5, when i put the same formula my excel doesn't show the correct answer but it shows the last revenue at D16, is it because if have old excel or is there something else wrong?
I'm seriously waiting for your video on python basics to advance
the best community service too
Hi Kenji, what if I have in my Excel only IFS function (not the IF), how should I put it then? Because with IFS, there are not enough ifs...if you understand that :D
I need help, how would you count the number of consecutive days in excel ? For example, if after 5 days worked in a row, there is at least 1 day off?
For the 5th que I've used Vlookup then index+match+match bcz I have excel 2013 and it doesn't have the Xlookup function 🤡🙏🏽
I appreciate the video, but most of these questions were already covered in your previous videos.
Kenji make video on how to automate whole financial modeling using AI to save hell out of time
in my excel 2016 no function is textsplit..which is your version?
It was introduced in Excel 365.
For the question 3, there is another formula to split the text, I will use MID and Find to do this question if the excel version is before 2013😅
AI IS COMMING
who would i be if i didn’t meet Kenji Explains?🥹
