BCG SEA Decision Call

Hi everyone! Quick question for those familiar with BCG SEA:

For final round results, does the call usually come from the interviewer/partner or from HR?

Also, do they typically call both for offer and rejection, or only for offers?

My first partner interviewer mentioned that ‘HR will let you know the result,’ and I’m wondering if that’s just the standard process or if it implies anything about outcome. 

Thanks in advance!

Hi there, 

Don't read too much into that. It doesn't imply anything about the outcome. 

What HR would tell you is the final outcome, but usually there should be a call from one of your interviewers, to give you the congratulations and/or feedback (note: even for people with offer, there might still be some feedback, so feedback does not equal rejection). 

Best,

Emily

Thank you so much for clarifying! Do they typically reach out by mobile number or from a landline?

Typically one of the senior interviewers calls you to give you the news. 

It does differ from office to office though.

I wouldn't read too much into what this person has said. 

In short, they have your contact details and they'll get in touch as soon as they've made a decision. 

Fingers crossed that you hear back soon from them!

Second what Emily said... your interviewer likely just mentioned that generically.

It does not imply anything.

The only thing you can do is wait for the result..which is now the most difficult part.
