Interviewing with BCG tomorrow for a corp function role. Five separate interviews scheduled. Any last minute interview tips for them? No case questions so I'm told.

OP I hate to be negative, but no case means it’s a non client facing role? You should be fine! Good luck!

How did you apply? Would like to try as well

What type of Corp functions role?

I'll spill the beans more later 😉 Don't wanna give myself away until after the interviews lol.

EY1, I applied via their Platinion site. I had a former colleague who now works at BCG refer me, though. That's all I did to get an initial interview. Granted, I used to work at IBM with the senior manager who interviewed me second, so that probably didn't hurt lol. Building a network and never burning bridges can do wonders for getting a foot in the door.

What can I do?
Please advise 🙂

Hi all,
I’m currently working for a small technical consulting start-up firm. I make good money, have great benefits, and they seem very happy with the work I’m doing, so I know I could move up quickly. However, tech consulting is definitely not my dream job. I want to get into data analytics, and I have an offer from a big company to do just that. I’ve only been at my current company for about 8 months, but I don’t ever see myself loving this job. How do I know when it’s time to make a change?
