Based on previous WSO threads, here are some insights regarding the timeline for hearing back from BCG after interviews:

  • Rejection Calls: Typically, if you are rejected, you will hear back sooner. For example, one user mentioned that rejection calls often go out the day after the interview.
  • Offer Calls: If you haven't received a rejection call, it might be a good sign. Another user noted that no news is good news, as rejection calls are usually prompt.

Given that today is Sunday, September 8th, 2024, and your interview was on Friday, it is still quite early. It is reasonable to expect that you might hear back early next week. Enjoy your weekend in the meantime and stay hopeful!

I haven’t heard back. I thought interviews went well. Could be reading into it but one said “hope we connect soon” and the other said “talk soon” at the end.
