Company Assessment Tests: P&G, PwC, Deloitte and Unilever
Written and maintained by CKAutoFlow
Some employers assess overlapping reasoning skills, but that does not make their tests interchangeable. Start with your invitation, identify the task, and choose practice for that skill. This comparison separates confirmed employer information from our preparation suggestions.

Which companies have assessments similar to P&G?
P&G’s public interactive guide includes equation gaps, symbol reordering and a memory task. Our equation and pipeline exercises develop related skills; simple dot recall covers only part of the memory task. Other employers below share broader reasoning skills, not a confirmed copy of this format.
- PwC UK early careers: the official page names numerical, inductive and deductive reasoning. Data interpretation and rule checking are useful foundations.
- Deloitte UK early careers: the official page names numerical and verbal reasoning alongside behavioural assessment. Prioritise reading data and interpreting the question.
- Unilever UK apprenticeships: the 2025 early-careers brochure describes numerical, verbal and situational judgement assessments. That dated UK source does not establish the format for every current global programme.
- Nestlé UK & Ireland: the Academy page confirms an online-assessment stage. It does not establish that applicants receive P&G-style Switch, Digit or Grid tasks.
Who uses the Switch, Digit and Grid challenges?
The Switch, Digit and Grid challenges are Aon tests: Aon (which acquired cut-e in 2017) sells them as gamified challenges in its smartPredict assessment, and P&G uses them in its Interactive Assessment. Prep providers also list Deloitte, KPMG, EY, Morgan Stanley, UBS, Johnson & Johnson, Capgemini, Vodafone and Siemens among employers that use Aon or cut-e assessments for some roles. Those lists are not confirmed by the employers and do not say which games each one uses, so treat them as a reason to check your invitation, not as a promise.
- If your invitation names Aon, cut-e or smartPredict, practise the Switch, Digit and Grid challenges here.
- If it names SHL, Talent Q or Cappfinity, expect more traditional numerical, verbal and inductive questions; data interpretation and figure series practice are the closest matches here.
- The same Switch skill, reading a code as where each new slot comes from, applies whichever company sends the test.
Choose practice by the task rather than the company name
- Equation gaps with distinct digits: start with the numerical guide and equation practice.
- Reordering symbols through a code: start with the pipeline guide and permutation practice.
- Tables, percentages and ratios: start with data interpretation.
- Patterns and rules: figure-series practice develops checking a proposed rule against all observations. It is not a complete inductive or deductive test.
- Verbal reasoning, workplace judgement and video responses: use employer preparation resources; CK Quiz does not currently simulate these sections.
Original example: distinguish growth from share
A business grows from 80 to 100 units; one team supplies 25 of the 100 units.
- Growth is (100 − 80) ÷ 80 = 25%.
- The team’s share is 25 ÷ 100 = 25%.
- The answers happen to match, but the denominators answer different questions. If next year totals change, the same shortcut may fail.
A preparation routine across applications
Keep a separate list of task names for each invitation. Try one unfamiliar example without timing it, write down the error, then repeat the method on new data. Track accuracy and time separately. Finally, use the employer’s own practice interface to learn its instructions. A practice result here cannot predict an employer’s pass threshold.
Scope and source checks
Employer information was checked on 29 September 2026. UK early-careers descriptions are not claims about China, the US or experienced hiring. The Unilever source is explicitly a 2025 brochure. Recheck your current invitation before relying on any test description. CK Quiz is independent of all companies named here; examples are original learning exercises.
Put the method into practice
After the 24-hour full-feature trial, get 10 random new questions per practice type (10 lifetime memory rounds) and use each solver 10 times for free, with no daily reset. Paid access unlocks new generated questions and continued solving with 7-day access.
