I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Mailand) in Dec 2015
Interview
I applied online and got back within a month. From the day of the first interview to the end the process took a week. First round 2 interviews with principals and 1 online case. Second round entire day spent with partners and HR director. Overall good experience. Each interview is standard with personal question in the first 10 minutes and then case study.
Case with partners are not trivial. Partners seemed to care more about motivations.

I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Lissabon, Lissabon)
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.
