Hoping for some quick advice (experienced consultant here): is there a way to get someone’s attention at BCG to have a conversation about joining? I feel that applying online has a low success rate.

Just to give McK1 post context, I’m a Aggie and if a fellow Aggie reached out on LinkedIn, i would always at least have a chat and potentially refer. I’m also a marine and would do the same there.

Find someone there with whom you have a connection or common interest...I searched their website (or try LinkedIn) and ended up connecting with someone from my (obscure) Alma mater. Most people like to be helpful.

Just a random person? I don’t have any 1st degree connections.

I have had success applying online and getting an interview offer. I did not clear the final round of cases, but the online application worked. Your resume and cover letter have to be well written. My experience was that the BCG online application is not a black hole.

After 2 years of a pandemic and working independently for many years, I am not feeling interviews AT ALL. There are points in the interview where I want to just say "Look! Either hire me or don't".

How can I get over this feeling? I'm over the whole "stand in the line of fire to prove how good I am" bs. Any recommendations for getting over this or possible industries to pivot into to avoid bs interview processes and ghosting?

on the way to an interview this morning eating a sandwich. I walked past a homeless man who had a stray cat perched on his lap. He asked for a bite of sandwich to feed them both as they hadn’t eaten in days. I gave the whole sandwich over and headed off to the interview. As I got to the interview room there was a large executive chair facing away from me. The chair turned and on top was a mirror. When looking in the mirror I could see the cat. I am the cat.
