The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Boston, MA) in Nov 2010
Interview
Interviewed on Campus with 2 cases (each one had about 10 minutes of fit at the end); Invited to 2nd round at the office, for 2 more cases and one interview that was just fit. Definitely case prep is what gets you the position (or didn't get me the position, I should say). The fit interview was pleasant, a lot about what it's like to be a consultant and work for BCG and why you want to work there. But again, it's all about the cases.
I applied online. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Lisbonne, Lisbonne) in May 2026
Interview
One virtual assessment followed by four in person case study interviews.
Two fourty five minute case study interviews and if the candidate passes another two fourty five minute case study interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One case study about an airline and another about the banking industry
2 one-to-one interviews with fit questions and case studies. One is about the mining industry's efficiency increase, and the other is the PE decision in investment in a specific electronic vehicle.
I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Lisbonne, Lisbonne)
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.
