Don’t know if it is consistent across firms, but I was recently referred to McK. My contact mentioned that the system will match the referral and application on the backend.

Yep, its definitely a little different at BCG. Went through the process last year and received the link same day as the day my contact referred me.

Give it a couple days, the recruiting people that are likely In charge of processing the referral are busy with campus recruiting
