Hi Fishes! I’m having my first interview for a Talent Management Coordinator role at BCG tomorrow. It should be “just”a phone screen, no cases involved. Any tips or info to share? Thanks!

I recently had a phone screen interview with another company - not BCG. Pretty simple BUT they did throw in one “tell me about a time…” question that I didn’t expect during this phase. So it might be worthwhile to have some answers ready to a few of those situational questions.

Alright, thanks so much for sharing!And good luck !

How did it go? Any insight on questions asked?

Did an interview yesterday that was supposed to be behavioral, but turned out to be more like the case interviews I did in undergrad.

Had an interview for an associate position at Citi. Interviewee was based in London and I’m in NYC. The only interview time that worked was 6am. I was barely functioning and feel like I truly messed up in my answers because I couldn’t not think clearly. I have another with the head of the division next week again at 6am (pre determined before this interview). It was also hard because the division’s core work is private enough that there was not much prep I could do beforehand. Tips?

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

I hope I don't sound foolish, but I was asked to "please attach a CV?" What is that?
