Hi there,

Q: Got invited to do a BCG case assessment online. Any advice on how to ace this? 

I provided some information below on the assessment.

The BCG Online Case (also called Casey 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

You can find 10 key tips to prepare for the test here:

If you want to prepare further for the online case, I created a software simulation that replicates exactly 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 Chatbot. 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.

You can get access right away to the software simulation and guide at the link below:

For any questions on the test please feel free to PM me, I will reply within 12 hours.

Best,

Francesco

Hi!

Actually, coaches don't do that. Or at least I don't. I think it would be unfair towards other candidates to solve this together with your coachee. 

But in terms of preparation, I see Francesco already provided a good overview below. There's actually lots of info online about the test. I'd also recommend you try out Youtube where you can watch some live simulations.

Good luck!
Cristian

Hi there,

First of all, congratulations on the invitation from BCG!

I would be happy to share my thoughts on your questions:

  • First of all, given the BCG Casey pre-interview assessment is essentially a case study that you solve on your own, I would highly advise you to focus your preparation on practicing case studies with peers and on your own, as this is the best way to prepare for it.
  • Moreover, please feel free to contact me directly for authentic BCG Casey sets.

If you would like a more detailed discussion on how to best prepare for your upcoming BCG interviews, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Best,

Hagen

In my opinion, practice is the key here. Get a bunch of online tests and practice them (one question at a time). In particular, MConsultingPrep have a fantastic simulation. Feel free to message me for a discount code!
