I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Toronto, ON) in Oct 2010
Interview
Two case interviews, 45 minutes each. They did behavioural questions first and asked me about a recent accomplishment and a few resume items.
The cases were typical ones that you would have practiced in advance. No real surprises.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Tell us about a recent accomplishment of yours that you are proud of.
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
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (São Paulo, São Paulo)
Interview
Prova GMAT+ Case + inglês seguida de duas rodadas de duas case interview. Entrevistas bem desafiadoras e exigentes já que o entrevistador somente responde suas perguntas e não dá muitas informações sobre o case.
L'interview m'a parue peu professionnelle, alors que je m'attendais à quelque chose de très carré. L'interviewer était complètement à côté de ses pompes, il s'est même perdu dans le case qu'il me proposait. C'était vraiment étonnant, je me suis même demandé si c'était une stratégie pour me tester.
