Boston Consulting Group Associate Consultant interview questions

Three stages: ·Test: Really, really tough. Across the industry, the most difficult test I'd say. I barely completed 17/27 questions, but I managed to pass. ·First Round (Consultant + Project Leader): Fit questions + cases. The fit questions were a bit more difficult than the average within the industry (I've interviewed with all MBB and BB). Really, really analytical cases, lots of numerical questions and exhibits. I passed. ·Second Round (Principal + Partner). Again, really analytical cases. The interviews were much harder, they want to go deeper in everything you answer. More unstructured cases, no framework to follow so you have to be ready for everything. One of the guys even made me pitch the recommendations in front of him. Really hard interview

Three rounds at the London office. 1st round includes a quantitative test (more time pressure than online) and an interview. Second round is two interviews with managers/principals and third round is three partner interviews.
