I applied through an employee referral. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Prague) in May 2022
Interview
1. Initial online case study with Chatbot Casey, which pretty much simulates a real case interview problem.
2. Rounds1 & 2 - both consist of two 1-hour interviews consisting of behavioral/fit portion and a case study. At the end of the interview, candidates can ask the interviewers few questions.
The interview process is challenging yet still manageable. The communication from the HR team is outstanding, the interviewers want the candidates to succeed and do not throw any crazy curve balls at the candidates. Overall, I had a great experience interviewing with BCG's Prague office !

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
