application periods

Hello everyone,

Please let me know how to find the application periods for each role at BCG. It appears that applications are currently open, but I heard that interviews for the Middle East office are closing by December 23. Is that correct?

Hi there,

I would be happy to share my thoughts on your question:

  • First of all, most offices in the Middle East typically hire on a rolling basis.
  • Moreover, since this depends on the country, I would advise you to check the official BCG website for the countries you're interested in. They usually update their careers page with current application deadlines, if there are any.
  • Lastly, if you can't find it there and/or you want to know for sure, I would advise you to contact the recruiting department directly.

You can find more on this topic here: How to succeed in the final interview round.

If you would like a more detailed discussion on how to best prepare for your upcoming BCG pre-interview assessment and/or interviews, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Best,

Hagen

Hey!

Application periods for BCG roles vary by office and position. Here’s how you can verify:

  1. BCG Website: Visit BCG's careers page and select the office and role you're interested in. They usually list deadlines.
  2. Recruiter Contact: Reach out to a recruiter or HR representative for the Middle East office to confirm timelines.
  3. Events & Networks: Check with university career centers, alumni, or consulting events, as they often provide up-to-date information.

Regarding the Middle East, interviews typically wrap up by late December, but exact dates can vary. Apply as soon as possible to ensure your application is considered!

Hey there, 

In general, BCG hires on a rolling basis and there are no specific application periods as such. However, they do tend to actively recruit for certain roles and various times depending on their needs for those roles. Some few ideas of what you can do is:

  • Engage with a recruiter about these specific questions. They will have the most accurate answers over anyone here in the Community
  • Check openings on BCG's recruitment platform. If. you don't see an opening for a certain role and office, then take that as they aren't recruiting for that role in that office at that time. If you do see it, you can apply knowing that they do rolling starts

All the best

Are you an experienced hire or applying out of undergraduate or graduate programs? Timelines shift around based on hiring needs, so it's best to get the latest view from recruiting directly (or through a contact in your target office).
