I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Boston, MA) in Oct 2015
Interview
I applied through the BCG website.
I was contacted three weeks later for a phone screener with a HR manager. Interview was heavy on behavioral questions and fit. A week later I received an invitation for an on-site interview with two product managers. The interviewers had a developer background and it showed in the questions they asked: mostly about interaction with developers and few product/business questions.
I received a rejection email two weeks later.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What steps would you take to ensure a sucessful product launch if you were thrown to manage a product already in development that is supposed to launch in the next three months?
Great, concise, interesting conversations. Thought provoking questions and showed genuine interest. The earlier stages were intense and brutal with many people being met and spoken to. Too many rounds of interviews and repetitive questions

I applied online. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (London, England) in Oct 2024
Interview
The process took 2 weeks, I had a first interview with the recruiter and after I've met the hiring manager. Both were very nice and gave me a good impression, one of my friends though suggested me not to continue the process as she was working there and told me the salary I was offered was quite down compared to the company's benchmark. Looking back I wish I continued the project, I think she said that cause she didn't want me to earn more than her. She was promoted to senior level the past year.
If the company wants to find out more I'll be happy to give them more details.

Interview
Most BCG offices hold two rounds of interviews before making a hiring decision. If you've been invited to interview then you can count yourself as being in the top 10% of applicants. However, the work has just begun: the chance of passing the first round is around 25%.
