The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group in Sep 2010
Interview
This was my first ever consulting interview. Consisted of two interviews on campus. Each one was one 45 minutes, on campus, and was one behavioral question followed by a case. The first question was "Describe for me a recent group experience" follow by a case question of a merger between two companies. Each company had a different call center structures: one was regionally based throughout the US and the other was one giant call center in the Philippines. The second behavoiral question was "Tell me a time when you took a creative risk"

Interview
A entrevista revelou algumas fragilidades, sobretudo na componente de FIT, que me pareceu algo desalinhada e com várias perguntas pouco claras e, por vezes, pouco coerentes entre si. Faltou alguma estrutura e intencionalidade nessa fase, o que acabou por tornar a experiência menos consistente. Ainda assim, o case interview decorreu dentro do esperado, alinhado com o padrão habitual das restantes consultoras, sem surpresas relevantes.
