BCG Online Case Interview

One update since this thread: if Casey is the assessment you're taking, I now have 10 full interactive Casey simulations based on real exams.

I'd still build the fundamentals through normal case prep, but there is real value in practicing the actual Casey format, question flow, and time pressure before test day.

You can find them here: BCG Casey Simulator: 10 Interactive Tests Based on Real Exams

Hi Khadijah,

Q: I would like to ask about the best way to prepare for the online case interview if any had any tips to pass the test.

I provided some information below on the assessment.

The BCG Online Case (also called Casey Chatbot Interview) is an 8-10 questions test BCG now used globally. It is structured in 2 parts:

• 8-10 questions to be taken in 25-30 minutes
• 1 video interview question at the end, where you usually have to provide a recommendation in 1 minute

If you want to prepare further for the Online Case, I created a software simulation replicating specifically the chatbot and one-way video interview.

It includes the following and more:

• 4 Casey Software Simulations of the Chatbot. These are live chatbots simulating exactly the same chatbot environment of the test (meaning you will receive questions from an actual chatbot with a flow equivalent to the one of the test).
• 4 One-Way Video Interviews. These come with Artificial Intelligence reports, so that you can see how the software will perceive your performance in terms of voice, speech clarity, energy and more.
• 2 PDF Simulations of the Chatbot. These are additional tests Casey-style, meaning you will have 6 different Casey Chatbots to train with overall.
• Free access to 6 PSTs and Potential Tests for further practice.
• Deep explanation of all the 5 types of questions asked in the BCG Online Case thanks to the complimentary 144-page guide.

You can get access to the software simulation and guide instantly at the link below:

For any questions on the test please feel free to PM me, I will reply within 12 hours.

Hi there!

The short and obvious answer is … practice. 

There's a direct correlation between how much you practice and how high you score on screening tests. 

When I was applying, I practiced every day on a mental math drill. I doubled my score in the space of two months or so. And since then I've seen this happen with plenty of candidates. 

So, in short, aim to get as much time as possible between the now and the test and then practice as much as possible between then and now. 

Additionally, sharing with you a collection of all the typical terms that show up in consulting interviews:

Best,
Cristian
