Interview
The interview process at BCN starts with an online test that assesses logical reasoning and mathematics, similar to the CAT exam but at a medium difficulty level. While I don’t recall the exact duration, candidates who clear the test are shortlisted for interviews. The interview rounds, typically 2-3 in number, focus on case studies and guesstimates to evaluate problem-solving and analytical skills.
