    Difficult Interview

    Application

    I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (New York, NY) in October 2018.

    Interview

    The process is very competitive but people are in general very nice. One partner was very disrespectful, he crossed the line. The final round is way harder and way more formal than the first round.

      I applied online. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (London, England (UK)) in February 2016.

      Interview

      The BCG Interviews were very relaxed / candidate led. Consultants gave the interviewees cases they'd worked on and the interview process was more of a discussion. There were some 'fit' questions but very basic.
