I received an email the other day from an F1Y (future first year) who recently got an offer following his BCG interview. I asked him to describe the interview format he experienced and make some suggestions for others who will soon be going through the BCG interview process.

I will be starting as business analyst straight from college, and would really appreciate if you can give me some guidance on which one is better. MORE
