Hi,
I applied for the US BCG experienced hire via referral link. How long usually does it take to receive any feedback? DC and Summit offices.
Thanks

Hi,
In my experience experienced-hire recruiting timelines vary a lot and on average take longer than traditional on-campus recruitment.
This is mainly because the firm needs to coordinate several senior interviewees, as well as interviewers who come from a smaller pool with expertise in the relevant practice area.
In my experience with several coachees, the process can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months. At one extreme, I have seen BCG completing the entire process in less than a month because it urgently needed a Project Leader in a specific industry (insurance) for several upcoming projects. At the other extreme, I have seen a process (again with BCG) take four months because the firm wanted to interview every candidate before making a final decision. One candidate postponed his interviews twice for personal reasons, so the other candidates were placed on hold.
For an initial response to your application, I would allow at least 2 to 3 weeks. If you have not heard anything by then, it would be reasonable to follow up with your recruiter.
Hope it helps,
Franco
