Best bet is obviously to ask recruiting directly, but big picture:
1. You are told to arrive in the office in early morning or early afternoon
2. There will be 2 interviews
3. In case the interviews are not back-to-back (happens often), you will be offered to stay in a waiting room. Some junior consultants / associates will be staying there to keep you company
4. Snacks are also available if you want of course
I am not sure what your level coming in is. I was just there for a first round. It is in Hudson Yards and you need to register both with security on the ground floor and reception at the BCG office. I would recommend arriving at least 30 minutes early. They will have you mill around the lobby/meeting area where you can get a coffee or snack for free. Your first interviewer will come and get you at the appropriate time. And then I was just handed off to the next interviewer when I was done. — David on Apr 23, 2019 (edited)
Case Interviews can be led by the candidate or by the interviewer: In Candidate-led cases the main challenge is the structure. In Interviewer-led cases the main challenge is to adapt quickly
