This challenge was submitted by Griffin Welsh @griffinwelsh. Thank you, Griffin, for this great challenge!
Job hunting today takes a lot of time and effort. You are not only sifting through hundreds of job postings but also crafting tailored resumes, writing cover letters, following up with recruiters, and networking to land the perfect role.
Once the offers start coming in, how do you decide which job is truly the best?
Your challenge is to compare multiple job offers based on the costs you will have to commute to work. You have two datasets:
- Job Details Text Input: Job details from six companies you received offers from.
- Constants Text Input: Information about fuel prices, car maintenance costs, miles per gallon, and your home location.
Your tasks are the following:
- Calculate your annual fuel cost and vehicle maintenance cost for each job. Consider the following for this calculation:
- Travel time to office
- Daily fuel cost
- Vehicle maintenance cost
- How many days you will be in the office
- Calculate your annual travel time (coming to and from work).

I love spatial challenges, this was very quick and fun to do! Thank you for another fun challenge :)
Fun Challenge! Spent longer than I would like to admit in the formula tool. After typing it out again fresh, I got the right answer, so I must have made a typo somewhere. My solution:
I did part 2 first, and then used the distances in part 2 to link back to part 1 - typical me doing things in my own order😎
