I applied online. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group in Dec 2014
Interview
Applied online. Resume, cover letter and transcripts. Invited to the 1st round. 3 interviews, half personnality questions half case study. Pretty straightforward. The case questions are not the hardest, however you need to get them right. The math is also quite straightforward, no trick questions or hidden points, however you must be on top of it. My first interviewer got me pretty offset, and it spiraled down from there and I wasn't able to perform on the 2 following interviews.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Case interview standards, sometimes a bit abstract especially on partner level
3x case interviews, interviewee led, questions about experience and relevant background, always dig deeper to understand details eg on leadership experience. Cases vary all the time, need to ne ready for anything. Thinking js rewarded
Case interview about merger and acquisition
Was medium difficulty has a lot of brainstorming and analytical elements
Required quick thinking structuring and deep analysis to really ace it easily
Practice is def mandatory and failure to do so will lead to failure
