I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (São Paulo, ) in Sep 2017
Interview
I had two interviews at the first round, one with a Manager and the second with a Principal.
The first one was a great experience because the interview seems to be really working with me in a project. But the second the principal was too hurry to tell the case and did not wait for me structure my thoughts and approach. I think this happened because I was the last candidate he was interviewing that day.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Case interview standards, sometimes a bit abstract especially on partner level
3x case interviews, interviewee led, questions about experience and relevant background, always dig deeper to understand details eg on leadership experience. Cases vary all the time, need to ne ready for anything. Thinking js rewarded
Case interview about merger and acquisition
Was medium difficulty has a lot of brainstorming and analytical elements
Required quick thinking structuring and deep analysis to really ace it easily
Practice is def mandatory and failure to do so will lead to failure
