BCG/McK🐠: Do your main offices have interview cohorts for experienced hires, or does hiring more so depend on team need? Bain seems to have rounds every 6 months...

Interviews are rolling. There’s always a need. For an office like Chicago or NY, experienced and other “off cycle” interviews feel like that happen at least monthly.

So do I have a chance trying to crack in to NYC as an exp hire? 😅 very nervous about my chances and I don’t wanna move a 16th time sigh

@BCG1 got it, does that go for even generalist roles? Friend said a recruiter told him the LA/SF offices aren’t on a rolling basis....I feel like those are two of the major ones?

Yup, rolling basis. (Source: Me)
