I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group in Jan 2015
Interview
The first round interviews were 2 back to back 45 minutes each. 5-10 minutes were for behavioral/fit questions, 30 minutes dedicated to the case case, and the rest for questions the applicant has. Behavioral questions were pretty straightforward, the interviewer is just trying to get to know you and see how you work on teams. The cases themselves are not super tricky, as long as you have a clear structure and stay organized throughout it. A lot of graphs (you need to ask the right questions to get the chart data) and some math. Interviewers are there to guide you, not trick you. But that being said, the interviews are definitely interviewee-led.

Question 1
When was a time an idea of yours at your last job received pushback, and what did you do?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Texas City, TX) in Apr 2026
Interview
you get a brief description of 2 interviewers who will be interviewing you beforehand, it is back to back cases, 45 min each. 10 mins on intro and soft question, 30 mins on case, 5 mins for questions at end. they call you within a day or 2 letting you know you progressed to next round. Next round which is final round is with more senior people, MDPs and Partners. Same structure but instead of being online they fly you into the office.
There was an online one to one case interview of 20 minutes with a project manager after the first round of virtual case interviews. I was asked on a business case.

Question 1
What to do to increase car-maker X's sale revenue by 2 times in 5 years?
I was not offered an interview because I did not pass the online case assessment, which was a required screening step in the recruitment process during the initial application stage
