Citi assessment explained and how to prepare
Learn what the Citi assessment includes, how the Plum invitation works, and how to prepare for figure series and matrices step by step.
What this Citi assessment bundle covers
This Citi bundle is designed for candidates preparing for the online assessment administered via Plum. It focuses on abstract reasoning, especially figure series and matrices, so you can practice the main question types in a structured way.
The goal is to help you understand the format before test day and build a calm, step-by-step approach to pattern recognition. You practice the parts that are most commonly used, rather than a broad mix of unrelated topics.

How the preparation is typically used
You usually start by working through the two core sections separately. That makes it easier to see how figures change in a sequence and how relationships work inside a 3 by 3 matrix.
- Review the invitation email carefully for the practical assessment details.
- Practice figure series to trace changes in shape, direction, number, size, rotation, fill, or position.
- Practice matrices to identify the missing figure from the grid.
- Use the exercises to build a steady pace before the real assessment.
This approach is useful if you want to prepare in advance with a clear structure. It helps you focus on the pattern logic behind each item, rather than relying on guesswork.
Points to keep in mind before you begin
The assessment invitation comes by email, and that message contains the information you need to complete the test properly. It is worth checking your inbox regularly so you do not miss it.
Because the practice is targeted at abstract reasoning, it is a good fit if you want to train the visual patterns that appear in Citi-style assessment questions. The material is meant to support focused preparation, not general test revision.
Who this preparation is suited to
This bundle suits candidates who want a direct overview of the assessment format and the question types they are most likely to face. It is especially relevant if you want to get comfortable with figure-based reasoning in a digital setting.
If you prefer to prepare methodically, this gives you a practical way to work through the assessment content in advance. You can use it to build confidence in the structure, timing, and logic of the questions.
The included practice is aligned with the Citi assessment via Plum and matches the focus on figure series and matrices. That makes it suitable for targeted preparation when you want to spend your time on the core abstract reasoning sections.
