IR Analyst Assessment

Hey all,

Got last round for an Analyst role at an investor relations firm and am asked to complete an in-office Excel skills test plus a detail orientation test as part of the process.

Thoughts? Curious if anyone has been through something similar and what the Excel portion actually looked like? Basic modeling, pivot tables, formatting, or something more involved?

Also wondering if the proofreading component is more of a "spot the typo" exercise or actual editorial judgment. Any input appreciated.
