Skills Assesment

What a great site!!

I'm a self-taught powerpointer and have been in the process of job
hunting... several of the positions I've interviewed for have required
PP skills that I'm sure I can live up to, but I'm wondering if there's
anywhere I can find information on testing my skills... I've tried
Skillcheck, but I can't seem to load the demo test... I consider
myself somewhat computer savvy and can pretty much pick up any
software with a little learning curve...

Any help would be appreciated!!

I'd look for a site or book that offered information on design.
I've seen to many presentations where the producer wanted to show off his or
her skills with flying this and twirling that and animated thingies that
kept drawing your eye from the content.

In addition to Echo's suggestion about brainbench, MS has a MOS
certification. http://www.microsoft.com/learning/mcp/officespecialist/

And, of course, you can always hang around this newsgroup and compare
how your answer to a question with that of the regulars. ;-)

Agree with Echo, Brainbench is good. If you're looking for a "very official"
recognition of skills, try: http://www.ckga.com/assessment.html
or as Tuchar mentioned, obtain your MOS certification.
