Hi there,
Well done on securing the referrals. In terms of your questions:
1) In particular, I want to know what happens after I get the referral. If it works, do I just get an invitation to the interview?
If you pass the screening, then HR will reach out to organize the next step (most likely the test).
2) What about the initial test? One person who referred me said that after referrals I will still get an initial test but she asked me to confirm with the recruiter because she wasn't sure. I emailed the recruiter, and she hasn't replied in days (side question, should I follow up?).
Yes, unless otherwise communicated you will still have to go through the Casey Chatbot Test.
I reported some info below on the test.

The BCG Casey Test (also called Chatbot Interview) is an 8-10 questions test BCG now used globally. It is structured in 2 parts:
- 8-10 questions to be taken in 25-30 minutes
- 1 video interview question at the end, where you usually have to provide a recommendation in 1 minute

If you want to prepare for the Online Case in the best possible way, I created a software simulation replicating specifically the chatbot and one-way video interview.
It includes the following and more:
- 4 Casey Software Simulations of the Chatbot. These are live chatbots simulating exactly the same chatbot environment of the test (meaning you will receive questions from an actual chatbot with a flow equivalent to the one of the test).
- 4 One-Way Video Interviews. These come with Artificial Intelligence reports, so that you can see how the software will perceive your performance in terms of voice, speech clarity, energy and more.
- 2 PDF Simulations of the Chabot. These are additional tests Casey-style, meaning you will have 6 different Casey Chatbots to train with overall.
- Free access to 6 PSTs and Potential Tests for further practice.
- Deep explanation of all the 5 types of questions asked in the BCG Online Case thanks to the complimentary 144-page guide.
