Very straightforward—started with a fit interview with classic consulting questions and then continued with a digital case—the digital case is a different style from regular casing, so prepare for that, but otherwise very standard.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2021
Interview
I only participated in the first round, which was an online case and a 30-minute behavioral interview. The behavioral interview was very standard, but I had trouble with the quantitative aspect of the online case.

There are two rounds of 2 one hour interviews. All interviews have the same format (15 min behavioral and 45 min case). I was given an interview after I met a recruiter at an in-person recruiting event and she recognized my application.
