Has anyone given the 2hrs 15 mins quant assessment test for BCG? If yes, can you please share your experience?

I am currently in the process of interviewing with BCG Procurement Practice for their SEA offices. My Casey and HR screening rounds are done and now have received an invite for Procurement Quant assessment. In this assessment, I will have a total of 2 hours to analyze and respond to the case. Following this, I will have to present my findings and insights in a 15-minute timeframe.

Hi there,

Is this a written case? Or a screening test?

Because it sounds like a written case not a quant assessment…

This is an Excel-based quant assessment where I'll be given data sets to analyze within the 2 hours and generate insights. The insights will be discussed with the interviewer in the last 15 mins of the 2 hours.

Ah ok, it's more of a written test then in a sense. I've done a bunch of these (and have a bunch). Feel free to reach out for coaching - can provide you the data sets I have and help you train/practice in parsing them quickly for insights.

This sounds like a specific test for the expert/specialist track.

If I were you, I'd ask the recruiter for an example of past test so your can tailor your preparation better.

Aside from this, it might be worth reaching out to new joiners within that practice to ask them how they prepared for the test.

Best,
Cristian

Yeah, it is specific to the practice I have been shortlisted for. I did ask the recruiter about some sample materials, however, they said it is a new introduction and there is no practice material available.
With this post, I am trying to find out if there is someone who has recently given a similar assessment and can help me with their experience.
