I applied online. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Stockholm, Stockholm) in Aug 2017
Interview
First round interview. Two case interviews of 45 min, and a potential test. The potential test was online. 45 minutes, 25 questions. The case interviews were very interviewee led, should have taken more control.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Basic questions. Why do you want to be a consultant. What is your biggest accomplishement. The potential test was all about analyzing graphs and calculating margins. Could bring a calculator to the test.

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
