Nobody has responded to this question yet.
Is there a very small chance of error? Sure but in my experience that is almost never heard of these days. If you feel something is definitely wrong or contradicts what you were told by HR, you can reach out to the recruiters for an update.

Statistically speaking yes, there is a chance of error as the status is manually set by Recruiting, the margins are small though. I wouldn't make bets on it.
Hi,
The application status is set by HR, meaning there is a small error margin.
What is the background of your question?

Hey there 😊
great question – the application status on the BCG portal is usually updated by HR or the recruiting system based on internal decisions. While rare, errors or delays can happen – especially if updates are done manually or during busy periods like holidays ⏳🖥️
If something feels off, it’s totally okay to reach out politely for clarification – that won’t hurt your impression at all 👌
Happy to support you with a message draft or follow-up strategy if you'd like 💬✨
Best, Alessa
