Wachovia Job Test

I am going in for a newbie accounting position at Wachovia. The interviewer told me to expect a test on Quickbooks and Excel. Has anybody taken this preliminary test? I'd like to know what to expect if somebody has experience with this.

Great Site By the Way!

I've never had to take a skills test, but I imagine that if you know the basic functions of QuickBooks Pro and some formula functions in Excel, you may do fine.

You could be asked to construct a balance sheet or income statement in Excel given raw financial data.

Like I said, I've not encountered this before, but if I was the employer doing the testing, this is what I'd want the applicant to know.

(I hold a master's in HR, so I kind of have an insider view of what the recruiters and hiring managers would want to see in an applicant.)
