I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Johannesburg) in Jun 2017
Interview
The interviewer was a project leader and was very easy going and friendly, so much so when the case came forth - it was so conversational that I didn't make the time to put forth a structure. I recommend that no matter how conversational the interviewer is - drive the interview and ask for the time to add structure.

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
