Accenture Offer / BCG Final Round - Reapply?

Hi A,

As for the first question regarding BCG or Accenture, I would recommend to make another try with BCG and may be other firms. But, before reapplying to them, please, check that your notice period is already over and your profile has been reopened, so you are eligible to apply again.

Also, remember to check the current situation: whether your office and you companies are still hiring. Thus you can make another try being very well prepared.

Alternatively you can also apply after couple of years as an experienced hire within Accenture experience.

Wish you all the best!

Hello,

Unfortunately, it's not possible to re-apply so soon for BCG. After being rejected, you have a ban period that can be up to 2 years. You should reach out to your BCG HR contact and ask when you could reapply.
Don't worry, even if you start with Accenture you will have the possibility to reapply in the future, especially if you received a nice feedback on your interviews.

Best,
Luca

Hi there,

Agree with others that you cannot reapply so soon. It would make sense to take the Accenture offer and really build your skillsets/experience and then reapply after 2 years. There are definitely consultants moving successfully from Accnture to MBB; I personally know some of them.

Cheers,

Emily

Hi there,

MBB have a standard ban of 24 months, which may be reduced under certain circumstances (they normally tell you if that’s the case). I would recommend to wait the end of the ban period to apply. You should also show in your CV a certain career growth to maximize the chances to be invited.

Hi,

When was your interviewing process at BCG ? If it happened over the last year I assume that you are not eligible to apply at this time. Normally you should be able to apply again after a period of ~18 months after your last interview ! Accenture will be a very good step to reach your call of joining BCG (see my profile :))

Hope it helps

I think you hit on the nail, waiting a few years and reapplying would make absolute sense. Re-applying on the short-term would be a stretch.

Hello!

You can always try to re-apply, but it´s a bit too soon -given that I assume you have interviewed with them within this year-.

Good luck!

Hi, I recommend asking for the ban period to hr in order to know when you can really re-apply to better approach the problem. Just a question: what about the other firms? MBB and tier 2 are great as well and if you are super decided into strategic consultant they will be better than Accenture (I am talking about Mck, Bain, ATK, OW, RB, S&). I definitely would try with all of them meanwhile
