Me postulé a través de una recomendación de un empleado. El proceso tomó más de 1 semana. Acudí a una entrevista en Boston Consulting Group (Bruselas) en ene 2015
Entrevista
- I networked my way in. The company responded quickly to my application (1 week).
- One employee called a couple of days before the first round to make sure everything was ok. He proposed to do a practice case and the feedback was very detailed & positive.
- During the first round, I met 2 interviewers for the usual 15 min fit, 40 min case and 5 min Q&A.
- The cases had a similar structure: very basic problem descriptiion, gameplan, lots of business judgment discussions, one creativity bit where you have to come with a lot of answers to an open question and a quant part, based on a chart they give you. The case is closed by a quick conclusion.
The first interviewer was an experienced project leader, very friendly and well organized. He drove the case very well.
The second interviewer was a new consultant, friendly but not very structured and the case went in all directions.
He gave me a negative feedback, more or less the opposite as what I had received during the practice case.
This really gave me the feeling that the interview process is pretty random: some interviewers will like your approach, others will not, and you just have to live with it. Good luck.

Entrevista
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.
