Hi İrem,

GPA is important but not the only criteria of CV assessment. Uncommon backgrounds like yours are being more and more appreciated in recent years, especially in BCG. As I mentioned some minutes ago to another candidate (https://www.preplounge.com/en/consulting-forum/help-needed-5216), international and entrepreneurial experiences are the aspects recruiters want to find in the best applications. Therefore your activities have been assessed as extremely interesting :)

Now focus on case preparation!

Good luck,

Antonello

After you pass the math test you will be invited at the first round interview

Hi İrem,

definitely not common, usually you are selected for a single office and proceed with the interview process for that only.

In terms of why you passed the screening there may be multiple reasons, the following are some potential answers:

  • HR favoured your lifescience background
  • HR favoured the leadership experience
  • The two offices are looking for more candidates than usual as there is a pick of demand

I agree this is also uncommon though given the low GPA, unless you had a referral.

Best,

Francesco

Hi,

There can be multiple reasons:

  • If you selected multiple offices in your application - they can be assessing you for both
  • Otherwise, it can be just the recruiting team that is spread out

Thank you for the reply. What I wondered was why they would have let me pass the CV screening even though I am from an unusual major with a low GPA. And I wondered if they let many people like me pass to this round.
