How to Prepare for the Microsoft Word Test
The purpose of the Microsoft Word assessments is to make sure that you know how to perform necessary tasks for the job you have applied for. These tasks will often include formatting, file management, printing, editing, creation of tables and graphics, use of tools and automation, etc. During a Word test, you are asked to perform tasks such as using the menus, tool bars, short cut keys and more.
