    Also for those who has #value error in Days function (it's because your system date format doesn't match the given one). Select all dates (h2:h10) -> go to Data tab -> choose Text to Columns from there -> Delimited, Next->, Next ->, step 3 of 3: column date format and chose DMY -> finish

    Note that the IFS function is available in Excel 2019 and later versions. If you're using an older version of Excel, you can achieve a similar result using nested IF functions:
    =IF(F2:F10 = "Salesman", "Sales", IF(F2:F10 = "HR", "Fire Immediately", ""))
