Once had an applicant with "Excellent Excell skills" on their cv
Hey, I'm a senior developer with 25+ years' experience and more languages and tools and stacks and environments and so on that is reasonable to list in a comment. In my decades of experience, finding someone who is legitimately good at Excel is a rarity.
Accountants are superhuman solely for their excel abilities.
Cuz you either graduate to real programming and databases, or languish in some kind of hell where you work in excel all day and have to get good at it to save your sanity
