It’s just screening for fit, and to make sure you’re not a tool.

Case interviews come with formal interviews and they’ll give you plenty of warning.

Following. But best of luck. Can’t imagine a case w a recruiter.... maybe just a screening

Thanks, BCG1. Anything particular I should prepare for apart from the classic 'why BCG?', 'why do you want to leave your current firm?'

Stories that emphasise your curiosity and eagerness to solve problems, and your ability to deal with ambiguity, lack of data, and a range of client stakeholders (junior to C suite).
