Anyone have to do a timed Excel assessment for Yelp’s BizOps group? First time with one of these so any recommended strategies, focus items, pain points, etc. would be great.

I did one when I interviewed for them a year ago. If you’re good with Excel then it’s not bad. Just make sure you’re comfortable manipulating data sets quickly (index match, pivots, etc), I think the hardest part for people is probably the amount of time you have to complete the assignment.

That makes sense, and yeah, the time crunch is concerning me the most at the moment. Appreciate it!

Did it and it was no big deal and passed (didn’t end up getting role in final round / not right fit). Like that it’s timed because it limits your time involvement.

Hi all,

I am an IT professional having almost 5 years of experience and want to move to Canada for PR. My CRS score is not upto the cut off. I need someone who can help in earning connections points for Manitoba PNP program.

As it allows having an acquaintance or a friend to earn those 20 points, it can help my PR application.

Anyone who is PR and resident of Manitoba can dm me to discuss around it. I am ready to pay for this assistance as well.

I'm working on a Fintech startup related to commercial banking pricing. We would like to do some "expert interviews" with current RMs (we would compensate your time.) We want to better understand the friction points when it comes to price C&I or CRE loans. Please DM me if you are interested.

We are not looking for any private information, but more anecdotal evidence of issues that can be improved.

My company’s SOP template has a table of contents and a section at the top where the SOP owner is supposed to add a short statement containing the “Why” of the SOP, meaning a statement about what the SOP is supposed to solve for/ accomplish. A co-worker recently told me that it should also contain a checklist of the 4-5 main points of what the team member should know how to do after reading the SOP…. This seems really redundant to me. Thoughts?

Question about inclusion…. I’ve been teaching inclusion for 5 years so I’m still a newb, but a first year coworker of mine said she got points off on her observation because her kids were scattered in the classroom and she was having to move from kid to kid to assist. While I see the point of putting them together for convenience, I don’t agree with this at all! To me this is like singling them out by putting them all together instead of INCLUDED amongst peers. What do y’all think?
