Boston Consulting Group I have a first round interview in September with BCG. For context, I’m a senior analyst at Accenture with almost two years of experience. I’m pretty shocked that I even got this far in the BCG process because I’m from a very average state school and didn’t do that well in college (3.4 gpa). I have a few q’s about the interview - best ways to prepare for both the 1:1 interview and the online case? Does the company negatively view transfers from ‘inferior firms’? Thanks!

If you were still in undergrad would you prefer 1. Go back to campus and have an in person/hybrid learning experience with restrictions on social life
2. Have your school go fully remote for the entire fall semester
3. Defer for a year and resume your education fall 2021 when things will hopefully be “normal”

Let’s say your original TC in your current is 300k, but because of stock appreciation, your actual TC now is 500k (same base, same bonus, but stock appreciated). When negotiating with new company, will the new company consider your TC as 500k, or 300k? Thanks
