I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Brüssel) in Mar 2020
Interview
Two rounds of two interviews each, first round with mid-level consultants, second round with senior consultants/partners. You get the bio of your interviewers 30mins before each interview and it's really what you'd expect, a series of case interviews and follow-up questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why BCG, tell me about yourself, tell me about a time where you influenced a group, basically your average behavioral interview + of course the classic management case studies, which really forms the backbone of the interview.

Interview
A entrevista revelou algumas fragilidades, sobretudo na componente de FIT, que me pareceu algo desalinhada e com várias perguntas pouco claras e, por vezes, pouco coerentes entre si. Faltou alguma estrutura e intencionalidade nessa fase, o que acabou por tornar a experiência menos consistente. Ainda assim, o case interview decorreu dentro do esperado, alinhado com o padrão habitual das restantes consultoras, sem surpresas relevantes.
