How Relevant is Excel?
Many of the resumes that I see my peers write mention some level of proficiency in Excel and my university even offers a credential/certificate but I'm wondering if I'll need to do something like that. I'm by no means handy with Excel and only know how to do a few basic things but do I need I need to become a full fledged expert? I get that Excel is a really useful tool but I don't find a lot of enjoyment in working with it and instead find it pretty tedious. Is Excel the top tool that I should learn or are there others, particularly for finance and investment banking?
You don't need to start an internship or job by having mad knowledge of every function in Excel (you'll learn a lot on the job), but it is very important as you'll be doing data analysis, modelling etc.
