Get Ready for Skills Tests: Word and Excel Made Simple

Core Competencies on a Microsoft Word Test

• Document Formatting: Setting margins, aligning text, adjusting line spacing, and applying consistent styles.
  
• Editing Tools: Using spellcheck, find-and-replace, and comments for collaborative work.
  
• Tables and Graphics: Inserting and organizing tables, adding images, and managing layouts.
  
• Headers, Footers, and Navigation: Building a professional look with automatic page numbers, headings, and a table of contents.
  

These fundamental skills are often combined in real-world scenarios on a skills assessment test. Hiring managers may request that candidates reformat a lengthy document or use advanced features like mail merge to check overall fluency.

Simple Steps to Prepare for Any Skills Assessment Test

Approaching these tasks systematically will reduce test-day anxiety and improve results. Preparation is less about memorizing every feature, it’s about practicing core concepts until they become second nature.
