I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Boston Consulting Group (Atlanta, GA) in May 2018
Interview
Submitted my resume through university recruiting. Got an email from a recruiter from Atlanta within 2 hours asking for a phone interview.
Set up the interview for the next day. Overall just general questions about my background, recruiter in Atlanta stated that could be over qualified. Regardless he said a few times it went well and he would put my application through. He told me to expect a formal application later that day.
I proceeded to never hear from him again, I emailed him to follow up and never got a response. Hopefully this is an isolated incident and this is not indicative of the culture at BCG.

I recently went through an interview process for a position at a leading technology company. Before the interview, I thoroughly researched the company's background, values, and recent developments to better understand their mission and culture. I also prepared a concise self-introduction and reviewed common interview questions to ensure I could articulate my strengths and experiences effectively.
On the day of the interview, I arrived 15 minutes early to ensure I was calm and composed. The interview began with a brief introduction, followed by a series of questions about my background, skills, and why I was interested in the position. I answered each question thoughtfully, using specific examples to demonstrate my capabilities and fit for the role. During the Q&A session, I asked about the company's future projects and team dynamics to show my genuine interest.
After the interview, I sent a thank-you email to the interviewer, expressing my appreciation for the opportunity and reiterating my enthusiasm for the position.

Several behavioral questions and a few technical. Nothing that a decent amount of prep time can't prepare you for. Answers are much easier given in a virtual format verses in person.
