I have an evaluation and Excel test to take for an entry level risk position at a BB . How should I prepare for the evaluation and Excel test? For Excel is VBA important? I am concentrating only on LOOKUPs and general keyboard shortcuts.

i cant see how vba would be tested for that, it is relatively complex. I would look at pivottables, charts, vlookups, some formulas (sum, avg, crap like that)
Thanks pubfinanalyst. Do you have any pointers about the evaluation? I cannot get any info if it is a personality test, numerical test or written test.
I have no idea you said it was an excel test how can it be a personality test. My guess is that they will get you a computer and set you up with an excel file
There is an evaluation and an Excel test- as stated in the title of my post.
