“... I believe it was the single biggest reason why I ended up with an offer...”
It's a good idea - and maybe generalize it to all ADC applications for 2017?
I'm graduating from a top-tier med school in June. After submitting my application, they asked me to take a survey regarding my availability for a full-time position. I assume everyone was given this survey. Other than that, I haven't heard anything from them yet.
that is right..i was asked to complete the survey as well..nothing after that.
Hmm, I submitted my app for Bridge to BCG (South) but wasn't asked to complete a survey. Are you guys both in med school? (I'm not)
I didn't apply to Bridge. I applied for a full time position.
.
I applied for a full-time position but I wasn't asked for a survey. Is there anyone else like me?
Seems like Bridge applicants were contacted today for phone chat..hope there is some activity for FT positions as well soon..
Are you sure? I did not hear anything from Bridge Boston yet.
I got contacted for phone interview last week, and phone interviewed today for Bridge Boston. You?
Anyone else get declined?
Hi Redelephant, Do you mean for B2BCG or FT? I applied for FT as ADC and have not heard back yet.
Fulltime
Yes, it would be really helpful if you kindly post the office that you heard from.
received rejection mail from BCG, boston was my top choice office
Just got a rejection from BCG SF office for full-time position
Rejected - Dallas office.
Can I ask of the people who got rejected, are you going to try again for the July deadline?
I won't because i don't see any point..unless u have some addition in ur CV..although one of my friend did apply last year after being rejected from one office and was accepted in the other..so depends. Good luck!
Anyone have phone interviews for Bridge to BCG Boston? How long were you on the phone?
Interviewed for Bridge South. The conversation lasted for 15 minutes.
Same.
Had a video interview for Bridge to BCG Boston, lasted about 30 mins. Anyone know when we'll hear back?
I had mine yesterday, lasted 15 minutes and I think we will hear back next week at some point. Which office was your interviewer from?
Had my Bridge interview yesterday, too--30 mins. The interviewer mentioned how competitive it was and told me not to be discouraged if I didn't get selected. Is that just standard language, or is it a bad sign?
standard language from my experience. i appreciated the honesty. there's nothing more to do but wait at this point (i know that doesn't really make anything easier...)
I got the same statement. Like nrstom said, I appreciate the honesty.
The rest of my interview (the general upbeat attitude, the seemingly positive responses, body language, etc) did not make it seem like the interview was going poorly, so I also find it hard to believe that it was due to us doing poorly during the interview. Also, if they didn't think we could make it, they wouldn't waste resources interviewing us. So I wouldn't be discouraged! (or at least thats what I tell myself)
My interviewer started off saying that, 100% sure it was standard language.
Just got my acceptance to Bridge Boston.
Congratulations! Now I'm refreshing my inbox obsessively for news about Bridge NYC...sigh. Did they send the acceptance e-mails for all the Bridge locations simultaneously? This is torture!
Accepted to Bridge Boston - looking forward to meeting all of you!
Just got an invite to Bridge2BCG NYC!
Me too!! Look forward to seeing you there!
Any one else Accepted to Bridge Boston? Would love to connect
Does anyone know how it works if you're accepted - do you still have to submit an application for a full time position for 2018? Are we guaranteed an interview for full time?
No emails or calls, I can't help but wonder what's in store for me. Let's just say I don't have a positive feeling about this. (applicant from west coast)
Have any folks who recently did first round interviews for FT positions heard back yet? Interviewed for FT this Thursday and no word yet - painful wait!
Interviewed this Friday and no word either...they are probably meeting after the weekend.
