BCG folks, are your open houses for experienced hires a legitimate way to get an interview? Or more of a networking event?

Anything is in theory a way to get an interview. One of our partners was once a client, and she impressed so much on the job, she was asked if she wanted to interview.

I’m sure that’s true. I’m just wondering what’s typical and if there are hiring needs.

I mean can’t anyone technically register for the event? So wouldn’t it be more of a networking opportunity ?

You need to apply to get a spot

Hello anyone reading this! I wanted to ask for any realistic, recommended job positions from someone with more knowledge and experience.

I have 3 years of experience in management operations but also have 6 years of experience with child care, is that why I may be getting rejected? Maybe I’m overthinking my resume? 😅

A nice comfortable office chair.

My criteria: mesh seat and back, arms, headrest

I tried cheap ones from Amazon. Expensive, second hand gaming chairs. Tried HM Aeron (second hand) and while I didn't like the bulk and the general design, I was sold on the mesh seating. I wanted to get the ErgoChair 2 from autonomous, but it doesn't have mesh seat.
