Three rounds, each of which took FOREVER to book - but at least communication was open. I believe the entire process took me 9 months. Made it to last rounds that I unfortunately bombed (my own fault).

First, you need to do an online exam. It is business related and you need to know some economic principles. Then, comes the First Round - 2 case interviews. Overall experience was nice. Human Resources are very attentive and want to make you feel confortable at all times. Cases are interesting.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group in Oct 2019
Interview
2 interviews with a Principal and a Project Leader in the first round, exact same for the final round. Each interview was 45 minutes each, with ~15 minutes of fit questions and ~30 minutes of the case. The fit consisted of 3-4 standard questions and the case was definitely more math heavy than other firms.
