Default How to move data from rows to columns

My data is sorted as shown, but each employee has between 1-5 rows of data.

Is your data sorted by (assumed) Column A (the employee column) as shown, or
could the employees be scattered all about in that column?

I am trying to move multiple rows of data to columns.

For example, I have multiples rows of different data for employee A and
want
one row for employee A that has the multiple rows of data in columns
instead.
Currently I have:
Employee A, dependent 1, birth date
Employee A, dependent 2, birth date
Employee B, dependent 1, birth date
Employee C, dependent 1, birth date
Employee C, dependent 2, birth date
Employee C, dependent 3, birth date
And I want
Employee A, dependent 1, birth date, dependent 2, birth date
Employee B, dependent 1, birth date
Employee C, dependent 1, birth date, dependent 2, birth date, dependent 3,
birth date

I've tried transpose (but have too many columns) and pivot tables, but
haven't been able to get anything to work. Can you help?
