Who here is microsoft excel expert

For the new job I will have to know microsoft excel pretty well. I mean I would work as a hotel receptionist or store salesman so how much excel should I know so they could hire me?

I have been learning for two days now I havent bothered to learn it before because I found it boring.

So basically how much should I know and how long will it take me to learn decent amount?

Pivot tables, vlookup, sumif, sumifs, maybe index and match. They aren't likely to want anything else

depends on the job.

if this is an actual business intelligence or analyst role at a big company, you might be fcked, you won't be able to pretend your way through the interview if they want you automating reports, creating macros/writing VBA, using some of the more powerful add-on tools.
