Interview

I received an invitation from a recruiter through ZipRecruiter to apply for this position. After that, the recruiter contacted me by email asking for my availability to complete an Excel exercise as part of the interview process. The test was time-limited, and candidates were given 60 minutes to complete it. After submitting the exercise, the recruiter informed candidates by email whether they would move forward to the next stage of the process. I did not advance to the next stage, so my feedback is mainly based on the Excel exercise portion of the interview.

Interview questions [6]

Question 1

The first tab focuses on Excel financial calculations and spreadsheet modeling. Candidates will see a table with product information including item descriptions, vendor costs, discounts, net costs, retail prices, profit, and gross margin percentages. The sheet also includes additional contextual data such as units sold and competitor pricing. The tab presents two scenarios: a current scenario and a proposed pricing scenario, allowing candidates to compare how changes in retail pricing affect profitability and margins.

Answer question

Question 2

The second tab focuses on analytical reasoning and solving a pricing/promotion scenario using Excel calculations. Candidates are presented with a short business context describing retail pricing and a promotional offer (for example, a standard single-item retail price versus a bundled promotional price).

Answer question

Question 3

The third tab focuses on profitability analysis and margin calculations under changing cost conditions. Candidates are presented with a short business scenario where a supplier increases the product cost, while the retail price remains unchanged.

Answer question

Question 4

The fourth tab focuses on basic financial analysis and percentage calculations related to payroll and profitability. Candidates are given a short business scenario involving a company’s annual net profit and a proposed compensation structure tied to a percentage of those profits. The exercise requires candidates to translate the business requirement into a calculation that connects annual profit figures with a fixed monthly compensation target.

Answer question

Question 5

The fifth tab focuses on understanding and reversing gross margin calculations. Candidates are presented with a short pricing scenario that includes the retail price of a product and a gross margin percentage. The challenge in this tab involves working backward from the available information to determine the underlying cost structure. This requires understanding how gross margin is calculated relative to retail price and cost.

Answer question

Question 6

The sixth tab focuses on basic data interpretation and business analysis rather than calculations. Candidates are presented with a small dataset showing monthly sales performance measured as year-over-year percentage change. The information is organized in a simple table with months and the corresponding percentage increase or decrease in sales compared to the same month in the previous year. The data shows a clear shift in the sales trend during the period.
