I applied through other source. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2012
Interview
During the third interview with the head of the department, he mentioned that they would be sending me to China or Paris for a year after a few months in Chicago. I was engaged and attending graduate school at Kellogg. This caught me completely off guard and I basically turned down the opportunity. If I had more notice, I might have been willing to find a way to make it work. Seems like an important detail to not mention as part of the job requirement.

Interview
A entrevista revelou algumas fragilidades, sobretudo na componente de FIT, que me pareceu algo desalinhada e com várias perguntas pouco claras e, por vezes, pouco coerentes entre si. Faltou alguma estrutura e intencionalidade nessa fase, o que acabou por tornar a experiência menos consistente. Ainda assim, o case interview decorreu dentro do esperado, alinhado com o padrão habitual das restantes consultoras, sem surpresas relevantes.
