    Hi @Eric Gutierrez ,

    The column property Dropdown (Multi-Select) is causing your problem. Change the columns to Dropdown (Single Select) and then the formula from @Dan W. will work. I'd make a small adjustment and add an IFERROR.

    =IFERROR([Customer Service Experience]@row + [Technology Proficiency]@row + [Multitasking and Attn. to Detail]@row),"Error")

    Work?

    Hello,

    In the [Resume Score] cell try the following formula:

    =[Customer Service Experience]@row + [Technology Proficiency]@row + [Multitasking and Attn. to Detail]@row

    Then apply it to the entire column by right clicking on the cell and select Convert to Column Formula.

  • That didn't work, @Mark Cronk would you be able to assist?

  • Thanks! @Mark Cronk so the formula didn't work for some reason, but the changing the drop-down from multiple to single allowed me to enter @Mark Cronk =SUM([Customer Service Experience]@row:[Multitasking and Attn. to Detail]@row) which did work.
