Me postulé a través de un reclutador. El proceso tomó 3 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Boston Consulting Group (Boston, MA) en jun 2021
Entrevista
I did not apply directly - HR sought me out on LinkedIn, and invited me to apply mid-interview process.
HR Screen, HR Zoom Interview, 3 Zoom Interviews with team members
Interviewers asked extremely repetitive questions between them all. Some questions seemed silly - ex. tell me your skill level in Excel - from a hiring manager, this seems like a waste of time you could be using to get to know the candidate. HR can ask things like that (and they did), yet I was asked this non-conversational question in all but one interview. It didn't seem like anyone was communicating with each other. Throughout the process, the role / who it would report to changed.
Very disorganized scheduling process, took over 3 months, and at the end HR told me they were not sure they are even hiring for the role, and would get back to me (while spelling my name wrong in e-mail, among other typos), and telling me I am their "top candidate." HR did not get back to me, and silently rejected me through the job portal. The whole thing really made no sense. I am not disappointed that I was not selected.

Tell me about a time you made a mistake, and how you reacted
Very intense case interviews, usually run by a project leader or senior analyst. They will ask you a lot of questions and follow up questions. Be prepared! Most of them are nice, not all, so be ready for a tough hour.
Case study and personal experiences. They give you a lot of material to prepare with, it's a lot about structured thinking. Make sure you prepare the case study structures and know what experiences you can use to answer.
They were looking for someone who would be willing to jump in to multiple roles, not just the one advertised and the pay did not reflect my expectations for the level of work they wanted.
