About the Google Sheets test

Spreadsheet programs are key tools for organizing and managing data. Useful for data analysis, they also serve as data repositories and collaboration tools. Google Sheets is one of the most popular spreadsheet programs, especially when teams need to collaborate on data-driven projects.

Free and easily accessible online, Google Sheets shares many features with other popular spreadsheet programs, but also includes unique data security, storage, analysis, and collaboration features. These additional features make it an ideal tool for practical business use. Hiring candidates with strong skills in Google Sheets means your teams will be able to seamlessly collaborate on spreadsheets and share the results directly with those who need to see them.

This Google Sheets test assesses a candidate’s ability to use Google Sheets’ numerical functions, use its text and logic programs, design and create tables and graphs within Google Sheets to visualize data, and perform and troubleshoot data management tasks within the program.

With a focus on real-world scenarios Google Sheets’ users will encounter on the job, this screening test will help you identify candidates with strong, practical skills in Google Sheets. Candidates who perform well on this test have the technical skills and analytical ability to configure and navigate intermediate-level data management and analysis frameworks in any organization.

Any tool can have functions—bells and whistles. Not every tool comes armed with staff passionate about making the user experience positive.

The TestGorilla team only offers useful insights to user challenges, they engage in conversation.

For instance, I recently asked a question about a Python test I intended to implement. Instead of receiving “oh, that test would work perfectly for your solution,” or, “at this time we’re thinking about implementing a solution that may or may not…” I received a direct and straightforward answer with additional thoughts to help shape the solution.

I hope that TestGorilla realizes the value proposition in their work is not only the platform but the type of support that’s provided.

For a bit of context—I am a diversity recruiter trying to create a platform that removes bias from the hiring process and encourages the discovery of new and unseen talent.
