I’m happy to chat. I got into BCG having never even heard of a case interview before and I had one month to prep. Been there 3 years now and I do regular case coaching of other prospective hires.

Sounds dumb but get some 5th grade maths exercises online and practice your long multiplication, division, percentages, large numbers. I’m sure you were great at math in high school but if you’re anything like me you’ll find that you’ve gotten rusty. If you’re not stressed about the numbers you can focus on the bigger questions

Yup. I used Victor Cheng’s speed math trainer (it was free with sign up), Khan Academy and practised written long multiplication and division on paper. Helped significantly.

Refer to the website they give you. As long as you have solid business acumen and a firm understanding of at least under grad business school you’ll be fine. They prefer more bespoke solutions so don’t over study. Know the concepts and what they are looking for

Or anyone who has interviewed and has some advice!

Second this. I did my BCG Interview and had to write my math down on paper to do, I was definitely not prepared as well as I could’ve been and that’s why I didn’t move on. All in all a truly spectacular recruiting process, very high touch

I found a company I was really excited about working at. I applied for the job and went through 5 rounds of interviews. At the end they said I was OVER qualified and they want me for a different position higher up in the company. I was super excited they then had me go through 5 more rounds, 3/5 people were the same. The interviews mostly went "didn't you get the job, I highly recommend you? I'll just put you down as a 10". After those were done they told me I was UNDER qualified. Can't win!
