If you’re not crying by the end of the interview, then we haven’t done our job correctly.

All joking aside, be yourself. You’ll be great. Best of luck.

We try to be fair and straightforward. Want to see you at your best. Not trying to trick you

No offer for me but it wasn’t much more intense than Deloitte’s. If Deloitte was a 7/10 BCG was an 8. Be prepared for interviewers the push back on your answer and flat out say “I think you’re wrong prove you’re right”, as opposed to Deloitte which just said sounds good to every answer and moved on

I’ve been looking into BCG Federal. Anyone have any insight? Management consultant here.

I found BCG’s interview to be meaningfully harder than others, including M and B. Be structured. Be hypothesis driven. Spell out what you’re thinking. LOMS or Case In Point will help.

At the end of the interview he said they've had other people who were interested but only one other person besides me were they considering. Said he would talk to his team and possibly have me fly out to meet in person. How long should I wait to follow up without seeming pushy? Also welcome any other tips to separate me from other candidate.
