Try in Sheet1 cell C2 the array-entered formula:
Code:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A2&"",TRIM(Table1),2,FALSE),"")
Array-entering means committing the formula to the sheet using Ctrl+Shift +Enter and not just Enter. Then copy down.
 
Try,

In Sheet2, select all data in Column A >> "Text to Columns.. ">> Finish

Then,

Sheet1 Column C formula will work.

Hi,

In your original formula you are trying to match the lookup value against table. Now VLOOKUP checks in the first column of the table which does not contains those values, they are in column 2 of the lookup array. So that is the reason you are getting errors. Better use Index + Match, as below:
=INDEX(Sheet2!$A$2:$A$602,MATCH([@[MANDATORY
]],Sheet2!$B$2:$B$602,0))

Regards.
