Got a referral and applied using the referral link. Had my CV and cover letter vetted by several current consultants at BCG. But was still rejected without even having the chance to do the game and getting the interview.
This is wrong. HR gives a different weight to referrals. A referral from a junior is almost pointless. In my experience, no candidate referred by Partners is rejected before the interview.
That is categorically not true.
You don't know what you are talking about, so it is better not to be so strict in your comments.
Couldn’t disagree more!
