Hi there,

Q: How long after you submit your application and complete the pymetrics games does it typically take for BCG to get back to you?

For most tests, they reach out within a couple of weeks. If you don’t hear from them after a few weeks, it is fine to follow up.

Good luck!

Hi there, 

Two weeks is about the point when you should get slightly concerned and consider reaching to them for an update :) Before that, it's totally ok to wait. 

Best,
Cristian

Dear candidate, it could be immediately to a couple of weeks, few months, so should happen most of the time, within three months, usually happens at the beginning of that period.

Best regards

The usual range is 2-3 weeks, but very frequently up to a month. Sometimes they take longer than a month, but that is less commmon. 

Please notice that how long they take has no meaning regarding your chances to pass this stage.
