I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Gurgaon, Haryana)
Interview
I had uploaded by CV on one of the job portals and was contacted by a consultant hiring for BCG. The role was for a "Knowledge Analyst"
The JD entailed curation of BCG case study documents (500/1000 page decks) which have to be thouroughly read and understood as to which parts are beneficial from a consulting perspective and can be sanitized and re-uploaded on the intranet for consultants and other stakeholders on the BCG network
I was told during the interview..that there can be situation where you are curating documents for a project that took place for 12 months; and going through the documents in detail can lead to you working on 3-4 projects per year
