Hey - how long does BCG take to call you in for a first round? Applied 2 weeks ago now with a referral... should I be hopeful still?

Depends on the office. Some review experienced hire referrals monthly, but given the recent push, some are on a more frequent cycle. Would give it ~5 weeks to hear back.

Thank you!

Did you apply through the special referral link OP? Because if you didn’t, it will take like a month.

I did! Applied through the referral link
