Unilever game-based assessment: which games & how to prepare (2026)

If you're applying to Unilever's Future Leaders Programme or internships, you'll likely face a set of short cognitive games. Here's what to expect and how to get ready.

Which games does Unilever use?

Unilever's game-based assessment commonly includes Numerosity (mental maths), Shape Dance (spatial reasoning) and Digit Span (memory), among others. The exact mix can vary by role, country and year, so treat this as a guide and always follow the instructions in your invite.

How to prepare

• Practise each game's mechanics until they feel automatic — read our guides for Numerosity, Shape Dance and Digit Span.
• Rehearse under a real timer so the time pressure feels familiar.
• Warm up your mental maths and memory in the days before.
• Use focus drills to fix your weakest skill rather than re-playing what you're already good at.
