Interview
The interview could be considered as pretty straight forward if you take enough time to prepare yourself for case interviews and if you practiced your math. The interviewer almost seem uninterested, i am still not sure if it was part of the interview or he was just plain out not interested. He was not even clear in telling me about what he wanted me to do/solve.
I am still waiting for the result but I have been told that the key is to practice a lot and not to lose your cool if things get confusing.

I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Ciudad de Mexico)
Interview
Fácil pero con tiempo limitado. Se requiere estudiar un poco business cases. Lo malo es que es digital y nadie te evalúa solo las respuestas. Entonces testa directo ciertas habilidades en específico.
Great experience at the interview. All interviewers were very nice and open to discuss anything. The cases were challenging but appropriate for the type of work you are interviewing for. I would recommend people to apply there.
