I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Lissabon, Lissabon) in May 2025
Interview
The interview process begins with an online business case. If successful, you’ll proceed to two consecutive 45-minute interviews with two principals. Each interview starts with a 5-minute introduction, followed by a business case that you'll be expected to solve. These cases test your market knowledge, your approach to market entry strategies, and your ability to perform mental math without a calculator—though you’ll have paper and pencil available. At the end of each interview, you'll have time to ask your own questions.
If you pass this phase, you will have 2-3 more intreviews, with more seniors employers to get to know you and resolve more complex business cases.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Case interview standards, sometimes a bit abstract especially on partner level
3x case interviews, interviewee led, questions about experience and relevant background, always dig deeper to understand details eg on leadership experience. Cases vary all the time, need to ne ready for anything. Thinking js rewarded
Case interview about merger and acquisition
Was medium difficulty has a lot of brainstorming and analytical elements
Required quick thinking structuring and deep analysis to really ace it easily
Practice is def mandatory and failure to do so will lead to failure
