Hello!

You can only do one application, in which you rank the countries you are interested in. 

I would advise you to the CL focused on your #1 option (and pick Germany here) - although truth is that the CL barely matters. 

Hope it helps!

Cheers,

Hi there,

I would personally either just say I am applying to both offices, or leave out the office statement. I would then focus on why BCG in general.

Please remember your cover letter is even more about why you than why them (be “quick” about why you want BCG/the office…make sure to always spin it back to how you will be a strong candidate).

Hi there,

Why even mention any location? This is pretty redundant. 

Instead, bring across that you're attracted to BCG because of culture, clients, project types, opportunities, etc., which is something that isn't location specific (generally speaking).

The most simple and elegant solution!

Best of luck!

Hi there, 

I would be open in the cover letter, meaning you are keen to join BCG and you are considering 2 location (and rank them if needed). 

I would also reach out to the recruiting team to confirm how does it work (meaning 2 processes in parallel or just 1 process and then choose).

Good luck,

Lucie

Hey there, 

In the cover letter, you are expected to write about your motivation to work for each of the BCG offices. Fitment with the office in the cover letter can be expressed in multiple ways (1) sectoral projects of your interest (2) proximity to family/friends etc. 

If both offices shortlist your CV then typically only your first preference office will initiate the process. You will not have interviews with both offices. 

Thanks
