Can someone shed some light on BCGDV interview process/culture/relationship with BCG? In prod management for the last ~4 years and exploring.

I went through 3 rounds of phone interviews, 4 in person interviews (1 case interview) for a product related role. DV operates entirely separate from BCG, more execution focused rather than strategy. Relationship is good but the cultures clash a bit sometimes. DV has more of a start-up type culture rather than traditional consulting. Love it so far and would highly recommend!

@BCG 1 absolutely not. Consultants supports us on every venture but mostly only on the strategy/business side. You will be working with a team of designers, engineers, marketers and some client imbeds. Your PM background is actually super valuable and sought out for

@BCG1 partners probably way to go. Recommend trying to get staffed on a DV project to see if you like it first

@DV1 I’m currently a consultant on transition. Didn’t really gel well with the consulting style but I’ve done Product management before and was a coder in the past. Does DV look down upon consultants coming from transition into BCG DV?

DV1, are you open to sharing a burner so I can pick your brain a bit more? Trying to get in touch with a few people at DV and get some guidance.

What’s the best way to get connected to DV recruiters? Should I contact the recruiting team or perhaps some DV partners?

I’m on transition so getting staffed won’t happen. But I’ll try to reach out to some partners.

@OP sure, drop me a note at D-vyd85dhnxl5t70x@maildrop.cc

DV1, sent you a note. Thanks in advance!

DV1, tapping you again, apologies. Can you briefly describe what your case interview/other interviews entailed?

Seems like my last burner didn’t work. Can you shoot a note to this one - hpqxm@slipry.net? Happy to chat details offline

No worries at all, I'll send you a note in the next hour. Much appreciated.

DV1, just sent you a note. Thanks again for your time!

Hello! Apologies that I'm coming ~3 years after everybody, but would love to know a little more @DV1 and pick your brain! Applying to DV and will get a "practical" case interview - it would be great to know what to expect. If you didn't mind sharing a quick burner that would be amazing.

Cont. from Previous Post 3 mos 8 rounds: Thank you for your interest in NR. We appreciate the time you took to apply for the CSM position.

Unfortunately, because this role is no longer available, we will not be moving forward with your application. We will hold onto your application, and if a position opens that closely matches your skillset, we may contact you.

I'm an introverted person, like to keep to myself, focus on work, spend the rest of my time on family, gym etc. I've been told that I need to work on my communication and client relationship building skills. any books I can read? I don't follow pop. culture anymore, no longer actively follow team sports (but sporty myself) as I consider it bread and circus for the masses and don't rly enjoy work drinks... Am I doomed? Personally I am happy and love the work but fear for my career progression.
