Employer guides · Updated October 2026

Employer assessment guides

What the early-careers assessment looks like at well-known employers, which stages test reasoning, and how to practise them.

Each guide covers the stages the employer describes publicly, the reasoning, numerical, verbal or situational stages in detail, and what is not publicly confirmed. Processes change by role, country and year, so always follow your own invitation.

The guides focus on the cognitive parts of each process. Where an employer also uses personality, video or work-style stages, the guide notes the stage but does not cover it.
