BCG reimbursement

I have been offered an interview with BCG in one of the North America offices. Its a off cycle recruitment for experienced hires. The recruiter haven't mentioned anything about reimbursement for travel nor food. Is this case for every first round interviews?

Thanks

They will definitely cover some sort of travel, but it is unlikely they will cover food. On travel, it is worth checking:

1) Class of travel (almost certainly coach/economy)

2) Type of transport allowed (e.g. taxis vs bus)

Make sure you keep all your receipts!

Hi,

You should ask the HR for the ticket reimbursement. Usually, they should cover such things.

Best!

Hi,

For the first round interviews BCG covers travelling cost without food reimbursment.

All the best,

BCG Potential Test: The Best Way to Prep

Just like other consulting firms, BCG has also its test – the BCG Potential Test (also known as BCG Online Case). The standard version of the BCG Potential Test is computer-based, meaning you will have to deliver your results directly on the computer screen. The BCG Potential Test is peculiar, since, unlike other tests, you are penalized if you provide the wrong answer. Thus, guessing is not much welcome if you run out of time.
