I applied online. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Kuala Lumpur) in Jul 2014
Interview
The hiring and interview process were very professional.
However, one of my interviewers had a slightly condescending attitude. He began the case before I had even gotten my materials together and was in a rush to complete the case in less than 30 minutes.
He also gave me my review after the interview - but had done so in the wee hours of the night. At 2am to be exact. Not the best way to handle a review for the interview, especially for a rejection.
The HR recruiter was very pleasant and accommodating. One of the best I have experienced so far.

I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Lisbon, Lisbon District)
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.
