I'm so sorry! Can't believe I missed that step. This should do it:
- =ROUNDDOWN((TODAY()-[Hiring Date]@row)/365)+" Years " + ROUNDDOWN((TODAY() - [Hiring Date]@row) / 30 - (ROUNDDOWN(((TODAY() - [Hiring Date]@row) / 30) / 12) * 12)) + "Months"

Hi,
Assuming you have a [Hiring Date] column you could use a formula like:
- =ROUND((TODAY()-[Hiring Date]@row)/365)+" Years " + ROUND((TODAY()-[Hiring Date]@row)/30) + "Months"
This isn't exact as there are not 30 days in every month, but it gives you a close approximation. The formula to get the exact number of months would be slightly more complicated.
Hope this helps!

This unfortuniatly didn't caluclate properly. as an example, someone with an anniversary date of 1/13/2003, using this formula returned 22 years and 4 months yet today is only 2/6/2025 which is 22 years and 24 days.
Date difference from Jan 13, 2003 to Feb 6, 2025
How can we fix this to reflect properly?
