GITP (PiCompany) assessment practice tips

Practical tips to prepare for a GITP (PiCompany) assessment, with focus on matrices, figure sequences, number sequences, and analogies.

By the TestPrep editorial team · Updated

Start with the sections that usually appear

A good GITP (PiCompany) preparation starts with the parts that are most often included: matrices, figure sequences, number sequences, and sometimes analogies. Because the exact assessment can vary, check your invitation email first so you know which modules apply to you.

If you prepare in the right order, you can save time and avoid studying material you may not need. Focus first on understanding the task types, then move to timed practice once the patterns start to feel familiar.

Try a sample question right away

This gives you an immediate feel for the question style and the value of the practice environment.

Build familiarity before you add speed

Begin with untimed practice on each module. This helps you see how the questions are built, which details matter, and how rules are usually hidden in the sequence or grid.

Matrices and figure sequences usually ask you to track changes in position, direction, shape, or number. Number sequences require close attention to arithmetic patterns, while analogies depend on verbal relationships between words.

Once you can explain the pattern behind a few questions, switch to short timed sets. That makes it easier to see where you slow down and which question types deserve extra attention.

What to prioritize in your practice routine

  1. Check your invitation email and confirm which modules are included.
  2. Practice one question type at a time before mixing them together.
  3. Review mistakes by looking for the rule you missed, not just the correct answer.
  4. Add time pressure only after you can solve the patterns with confidence.

Use a simple step-by-step approach on the day

When you take the assessment, read the instructions carefully before answering. The format is usually straightforward, but small differences between modules can affect how you should work.

Move through each set methodically. If a question takes too long, it is usually better to make a reasoned choice and continue than to lose time early in the test.

If a section feels unfamiliar, rely on the same habit you used in practice: identify the repeated change, compare the options one by one, and keep your attention on the most visible rule first.

Regular practice can also help you stay calm during the assessment, especially if you know the question style from earlier repetition.

Keep your preparation aligned with the assessment you receive

GITP is used by a range of organizations, and the assessment you receive may differ depending on the invitation. That is why it is sensible to prepare broadly, but still focus your effort on the modules that are actually listed for you.

The best results usually come from clear priorities: understand the format, practice the common question types, then work under time limits. This keeps your preparation practical and close to the assessment itself.

Frequently asked questions

What sections are most common in a GITP (PiCompany) assessment?
The most commonly used sections are matrices, figure sequences, number sequences, and sometimes analogies, depending on the invitation you receive.
Should I wait for the invitation email before starting practice?
You can start with general preparation right away, but the invitation email is important because it tells you which sections apply to your assessment.
How should I prepare if I have never done this type of test before?
Begin with untimed practice on each question type, learn how the patterns work, and only then add timing so you can build accuracy first.
What is the best way to improve speed for this assessment?
Work on recognizing patterns quickly, practice in short timed sets, and review mistakes to understand which rules you missed.
Does the assessment content stay the same for every candidate?
No, the exact content can vary by assessment, which is why it is important to check the sections listed in your invitation email.
