I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Boston, MA) in Jan 2015
Interview
There was 2 rounds of interviews, one on campus and one at the office. Each round had 2 45-minute interviews,each with a mix of behavioral questions and a case study. The 2nd round interviews were with Principals/Partners. It was definitely harder than the 1st round but I felt that it was more of a "could I stand to work with this person" test. Come with questions and curiosity about that person's work. It helps to have some insights into related industries that the partner may care about.
BCG’s process begins with an application and a one-way digital assessment. One round of three back to back case interviews (45 minutes each), combining behavioral (fit) questions and interactive cases with consultants or partners to test structured thinking, math, and communication skills

Interview
BCG's interview process is very difficult. From networking, through to shortlisting, case interview prep and behavioral prep. Be prepared to put in the work for an offer. The actual interviewers were quite nice, friendly and once I was coachable, helped me along.

Three case interviews in London with members of the Dubai office across two days separated by a couple of weeks. Interviews were challenging but representative of the quality BCG expects from candidates.
