Got feedback on my BCG Round 1: one interview was ‘flawless’ and the other one was weaker. Great experience though considering I had done 0 casing before and had only 3 weeks to prep. Thanks to this group for you help!

Hi Guys,

After my HR round today, Hr called up and said that will move forward with the offer but approvals with higher management might take some time as there is a hiring freeze.
Do you think offer will be released? And how much time these approvals take ?

She mentioned at the end that they are definitely going to offer as all feedbacks are positive.
But it all depends on the approvals.

Hey, another question for y’all. How should I reach out to a recruiter who offered me a full time position but I rejected for a better offer? At the time I was offered the position my main concern was lack of guidance/support from leadership. Now, a year later I have experience being in a role with limited over site (not as scary as I initially thought it would be) and feel confident I would excel in the role I rejected. How would you approach this situation? Thanks in advance!!

But, ultimately chose Bain for the culture despite McKinsey being aligned with my professional goals of working in the government.

Would it be difficult to try to transition to working in government after a few years at Bain? Any thoughts?
