What's the probability of being hired after you have been invited by BCG to interview?

Hi Anonymous,

as Vlad mentioned, there are too many factors that could have an impact on the average probability of an offer, including:

• The country and office you are applying to
• The position you are applying to (analyst, associate, experienced hire, etc)
• The needs of the company in terms of consultants in that particular moment

In terms of applicants, the rumored number of offers out of applicants is around 1% for MBB.

Best,

Francesco

Hi!

It heavily depends on the office, so any answer would be irrelevant. Pls concentrate on increasing the probability instead of calculating it.

Best!

I dont know how generally valid this is, but I read that of 100 applicants, typically 20-25 are invited to the first round, of which approx. 5 make it to round two, of which 1-3 people get an offer.

hope, that helps

Anonymous C - make sure to not confuse between applicants (your data point) and interviewees (the question). I have heard the same as Francesco for applicants, 1% or less; probability once you actually got invited to interview is dramatically higher - though still not good

My recruiter told me that usually no more than 15-20 people a year make it to the final round at BCG (out of up to 3000 applicants a year) and in most cases this is only formality, so it would mean that success rate is less than 1%.

However you can easily assume that probably no more than 20-25% of applicants are invited for interview.
