Anyone with recent experience recruiting for Boston Consulting Group? Got in touch with a recruiter through referral, was directed to submit an application and already finished my pymetrics. Anyone know when I would be able to hear back and what the hiring timeline looks like? Recruiter suggested to get back in a few weeks but isn’t it too slow? McKinsey sent me an invite for 1st interview in a few days after they received my referral.
Is the notice period for AVPs 3 months in hsbc?

That's always been my philosophy, glad to hear it seconded from someone who actually knows that side of things. I figured the numbers were either inaccurate or the result of tons of bot applications. The only time I'll forgo applying to a role I'm interested in is when it's been up for > 2 months.
What is a reasonable timeframe though?
A lot of people use the spray and pray method, which means most of those applications are either very terribly written, or from unqualified candidates. Always put your application in because you just never know.
