Skype call with MBB HR manager after referral; what can I get out of it?

Hi Andrea,

Agreed that you've most likely passed the screening, but this still may be a quasi-interview in that they're double-checking that you're a reasonable candidate.

I recommend taking the opportunity to ask some quetions specific to their office, but make sure you're not asking silly questions that you should have found out before from some research! Demonstrate your interest, competence, and likeability and you should be through!

Best of luck and continue to leverage this community in the process - it's a great resource!

Hi,

Most probably you've passed the screening and you'll be invited for a test / interview after the call.

Best!

Dear Andy,

Porbably you were screened. For that skype call I would recommend you to prepare questions and some information about the company, and some you FIT stories that can prove your interest and quality to join them.

Wish you best of luck,

If you need any further help or advice, feel free to reach out.

Best,

André

Hi Andrea,

I did work for BCG Milan Office very recently and happy to share my guidance regarding your roadmap for free at 15 min call. Feel free to reach me if you are interested.

Cheers
Serhat

Thanks to both!

I had the feeling that would be the case. I will make sure I get my story `why BCG' etc. on point.

However, a minor concern is that there has been some misunderstanding: I was not quite ready to apply yet as I have only just started preparing cases. My main aim was really to get to know Milan reality and then decide my office preference.

Do you think that, in case they propose an interview, I can postpone this to say August or September?

Thanks again.

Andrea
