Two assessments, and P&G names them
Official sourceThe global hiring-process page names both: a Peak Performance Assessment and an Interactive Assessment. It puts the whole assessment stage at 20 to 60 minutes, says some sections are timed, and says the assessments are available around the clock, are mobile-enabled, and are translated into more than 20 languages.

What the Peak Performance Assessment is
Official sourceFour mandatory sections of multiple-choice and sliding-scale items about your background, your experience, your interests and your point of view on issues related to working at P&G. P&G states plainly that there are no right or wrong answers, and that it measures compatibility against its Peak Performance Factors. P&G puts it at about 20 minutes; the Canadian posting describes it as not timed.

What the Interactive Assessment is
Official sourceP&G calls it a brief series of cognitive ability assessments and breaks it into three parts: about 6 minutes of completing equations by filling the gaps with the digits 1 to 9, each used once, with multiplication resolved first; about 6 minutes of working out which branches symbols traveled through according to a logic rule, where P&G says there is always only one correct answer; and about 12 minutes across three rounds of roughly 4 minutes each that alternate remembering dot positions with judging mirror images, rotations, and elements added or removed. About 30 minutes in total.

P&G names no vendor; Aon is reported, not confirmed
Single sourceP&G’s own Interactive Assessment page describes the three timed tasks but names no publisher, and neither does any other P&G page we could find. In April 2019, trade press quoting P&G’s global assessment leader reported that P&G had broken with tradition and turned to an off-the-shelf product from outside vendor Aon, its Global Assessment and Talent Engine. A second April 2019 article restates that account and credits it, so it is one chain rather than two sources. Aon’s P&G reference page and its P&G case study now redirect to generic Aon pages. The mechanics match Aon’s Digit, Switch and Grid challenges, but nothing live confirms the relationship for the current cycle.

No going back
Official sourceP&G states that once you answer a question you move on and cannot return to it. That applies across the assessments, including the Sales Virtual Job Preview. Plan to commit to an answer and move, because time spent regretting one is time taken from the next.

No AI, on either side
Official sourceP&G asks you to complete the assessment alone, without other people and without real-time help from technology such as artificial intelligence, and states that it does not use AI in its online assessments. The Belleville posting goes further for Canada: P&G does not use artificial intelligence to screen, assess or select applicants.

Results, validity and retakes
Official sourceP&G says it aims to let you know your results within 30 days by email, that for most roles assessment results automatically determine whether an application moves forward, and that if you do not pass the first time you can try again after 12 months. Canadian postings add that scores are valid for 12 months and can be applied to a later application through the link in the posting.

What P&G does not publish
No evidence foundThere is no published pass rate, cut score or percentile threshold, no statement that difficulty adapts to your performance, and no fixed countdown window to complete the assessment after the invitation. Prep sites assert all three, including a 72-hour window and a sub-20-percent pass rate, with no primary source behind them. P&G’s postings set calendar deadlines instead: the Brussels Masterclass, for example, required both assessments to be complete by 4 November 2026.

Which assessments you get depends on the role
Official sourceP&G’s assessment overviews page separates them: the Peak Performance Assessment at about 20 minutes, the Interactive Assessment at about 30 minutes, a Sales Virtual Job Preview at about 60 minutes for Sales applicants, and a Plant Technician Virtual Job Preview of about 25 minutes plus the 20-minute Peak Performance Assessment. Your invitation tells you which combination applies to you.
