I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Sydney) in Feb 2016
Interview
Friendly and professional from start to finish, very well organized. Started with phone screen and then a discussion of what to expect going forward. HR contacted me just before my first face-to-face interview to check on how I was doing and if I had any last minute questions. After that, I moved through 3x interview days, each one consisting of back to back 1-hr interviews with 2x BCG employees, with increasing seniority.
It was almost exactly as described online, some personality/behavioral questions, followed by a case interview and then time for you to ask them some questions.
The case interview is often a project that the interviewer themselves worked on, so you cannot predict what it will be like; it pays to study the cases on BCG's website as well as practising case interview techniques in general.

Question 1
Why consulting? Why BCG? If you were a consultant for this firm, what would you advise them?
I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Ho Chi Minh City)
Interview
Great learning experience. Interviewers were candid about the nature of the roles. Great support from HR, with prompt feedback after each round. There are many online resources to help with case interviews.

I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Atlanta, GA)
Interview
Two back to back interviews. Each consisted of 15 minutes of behavioral questions and 30 minutes of a case study. One interviewer was more senior and asked harder hitting questions with a more challenging case. The other was more straight forward.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when you felt you had to compromise on your values.
The interviewer had to change time the day before even if it was scheduled 1month ago. I had two interviews. The first interviewer seemed quite indifferent. They were both nice conversation tho.
