Hi there,
Even if the recruiter says “no need to prepare,” it’s still worth being intentional — HR fit interviews at BCG Platinion are very much about how you think, work, and fit, not trick questions.
Here’s what typically matters for a Senior IT Consultant – Enterprise Solutions role:
What they focus on
- Motivation for Platinion specifically (not just BCG): technology-led transformation, close client work, end-to-end delivery
- How you operate on projects: working with ambiguity, balancing tech and business needs, collaborating with non-technical stakeholders
- Ownership and leadership: taking responsibility, driving solutions, influencing without authority
- Communication style: clear, structured, and pragmatic
What to have ready
- A clear “why Platinion / why now” story
- 2–3 solid examples covering:
- Leading or owning a complex tech initiative
- Handling pushback or misalignment with stakeholders
- Making trade-offs between ideal tech solutions and real-world constraints
- One example showing learning or growth from feedback or failure
Tone to aim for
- Conversational, not scripted
- Reflective and honest rather than polished
- Business-minded, not overly technical
They’re not trying to catch you out — they’re asking “Would I trust this person with clients and teams?” If you answer calmly, show judgment, and explain your thinking clearly, you’re doing it right.
If you want, I can help you quickly sanity-check your stories or your “why Platinion” before the interview.
Best,
Evelina
