Hi all,
I have my second round at BCG in Germany scheduled in a few weeks and I was curious if someone can tell something about recent tasks for the real life part?
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Raphaela

Hey Raphaela,
they are not really recent but I remember what I had to do 5 years ago.
1) Hold small talk with a senior client in the taxi
2) "Sell" my favourite hobby to someone who does not like it
3) Write an email to a senior partner
Hope this helps.
Best
John
