Same, hoping they’re waiting til after the deadline (last Friday) so it actually hasn’t been a week since I did mine as opposed to responding on a rolling basis

I did something like this for IBM. It was a few questions or scenarios to talk through. You record yourself and then submit you have a few attempts per question. It is quite an awkward process.

Yes! Its due Thursday. About to do it today or tomorrow. Will post once i do

Anyone apply and not get a hirevue invite?

Wonder what the downselect was like. Speaking with a few Bainies it was the first they heard of hirevue as well.

I don’t understand what the downselect from the video is going to be based on. All the questions asked were pretty basic

So sorry A1! You can apply again next year ...

Some invites were sent out yesterday! I am still waiting

Waiting too

Read that McK is paying 2K higher than BCG this year which means BCG will probably raise again next year to at least match.

Barring a devastating recession, I’m guessing this means MBB is all getting raises again next year?
