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 Recruiters,
Let’s talk cover letters.
What do you think makes a good one? Length? Content? What should definitely be in there and definitely be left out?
What’s the biggest mistake you see people make?
Who is actually reading them? You? The department heads?
Bonus points if you can give insight into the way this works with the Creative Department. (I’m a Copywriter.)

Thanks in advance!

Curious about thoughts on on discount points (I think I’ve already read every article on Google). I am refinancing my personal residence (future rental) as well as a rental property. The mortgage brokers discourage me from spending a ton on points (rolled in, not up front). In some cases, it’s a 16 year break even. I get that’s a very long time to break even, but I have no intention of getting rid of the properties and doubt rates will drop much below current. Max breakeven point for you?
