Excel Modeling and Analysis Questions

Focused evaluation of advanced spreadsheet skills and model design using Excel. This covers building robust formulas and complex functions, data analysis tools such as pivot tables and aggregation functions, filtering and lookup techniques, creating dynamic models with scenario tables and sensitivity analyses, and producing clear data visualizations. It emphasizes model organization and best practices including separating inputs and assumptions from calculations and outputs, consistent cell referencing, documenting assumptions and logic, error checking and validation, avoiding unintended circular references, and designing flexibility for changes to assumptions. Interviewers may ask for examples of models built, walk through of design decisions, and discussion of testing and maintenance approaches.
