Hi, recruitment process is very much similar to Core. 2 rounds of 2 case interviews, sometimes you get an extra interview with the Office Lead or some lead MD.
Only difference is the content of the case that is more IT/Tech focused, however in some countries they also like to add an interview with someone from Core to judge business acumen as well

Thanks again; knowing this will help to better prepare.

^thats correct. I had an extra interview that had a core case study after the 4 prior- this was a deciding round to judge business acumen

Why would you assume that joining BCG Platinion would be a back door?
Transferring from one company to the other is not much easier, you still need to go through the recruitment process.

The reason for the interview with Core is because we are looking for people who understand the business challenges behind IT and can think on a high level how IT fits within a corporate strategy. I wouldn’t say it is harder or easier, both are challenging and need to be well prepared.
