PWC Numerical Reasoning Test Competency Criteria:

PWC have designed the numerical reasoning test to assess you against the company's key competencies criteria. The test will be timed, so you must be able to deal with pressure. Green Turn’s training schemes will ensure that you are totally confident and prepared for any eventuality. Think of the embarrassment and panic caused by ‘freezing up’ during the PWC numerical reasoning test and you’ll realise just how important this is.

PWC do list key competencies criteria on their website, but they don’t provide many details on the initial and follow-up questions you can expect to face. However, you can draw on the experience of our experts, who have previously worked for Big Four firms, to give you a major advantage in this area.

PWC Numerical Reasoning Test Details:

The software used in this stage has been developed for the company by SHL and Cut-e Cooperation, well renowned global HR consultancies that publish various psychometric tests for PWC worldwide. If you advance to the assessment centre stage, which comes later in the job application process, you will have to retake this test. It is therefore vital to start developing the necessary skills sooner rather than later.

Numerical reasoning tests are based on data presented in formats including graphs and pie charts, in a multiple choice system that offers five potential answers. There will be four questions per scenario, resulting in a total of 20 questions (5x4) that must all be answered within 20 minutes. You are required to demonstrate your ability with figures, your analytical skills and your time management abilities.

PWC will not furnish you with an informational booklet in preparation for this stage, so you need the relevant information and guidance well in advance. Do not assume that you can successfully guess your way through the numerical reasoning test, as you will be sorely mistaken.

PWC Numerical Reasoning Test Results:

Your performance during the numerical reasoning test will be retained on a permanent record and used during PWC’s final deliberations to decide whether or not you have got the job. It’s entirely possible to get through this stage by attaining a passing grade yet fail to secure employment when PWC recruiters take a look at your collective performances over the whole application process.

PWC grade your ability on each stage between 1 point and 5. It is assumed by PWC that if an applicant can demonstrate ‘core capabilities’ and attain the full 5 marks during the numerical reasoning test process then they automatically become a perfect match for the firm.

This means you need to score the maximum 5 points on every single stage to set yourself apart from rival job seekers and cannot afford to take a job test without having been properly prepared by Green Turn.
