I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group in Feb 2024
Interview
3 tours d entretiens sur 3 mois
1e tour :
- entretien classique avec un partner sur zoom,
- epreuve de 30 min dans les locaux type Gmat (questions beaucoup plus simples qu au Gmat mais la difficulte c est le temps : 30 min pour repondre a 80 questions)
2e tour :
- epreuve de cas ecrite : dossier d'une trentaine de pages, 2H pour faire 3 a 5 slides afin de repondre a une problematique client
- Etude de cas classique avec un Partner
3e tour :
- Etude de cas moins formelle/scolaire avec un managing director (on attend plus de connaissance du marche actuel, de l actualite)
