Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's what you need to know about the Pymetrics test:

anyone do the CCA?
Bump
received email today. going to do it later tn
does everyone receive the CCA?
yes
no my friend said she didnt get one and got rejection?
is the CCA another screener or just for more context
Another screener
Got the CCA invite this morning, doing it rn
Ran out of time on the math part of the assesment, it might be wraps for me, good luck to everyone else completing the CCA
same, bruh moment for me lol
That exam was awful. Really damn tricky with intense time pressure for the math, and the behavioral stuff was so dumb. It asked you to rank the same things in 100 different combinations.
Don’t be upset over it. BCG’s recruiting is by far the most annoying of the 3
bcg follow
anyone know when interviews are released?
Friday the 23rd
Source?
interviews are being sent out now
Just received interview (NE)
NYC or Boston?
Received interview southwest
just got midwest!
Received SW
Received invite (west)
just received invite (mid atlantic)
same
Does anyone know how long the case will be? Heard BCG full-time R1s are usually more behavioural heavy but this might be outdated news.
wouldn’t be shocked if that’s the case, seeing as there’s also the chatbot to do so casing is already kinda assessed
True, if I'm not mistaken the summer associate R1 doesn't even have a case. Curious to see how short a case could possibly be lol
Should be roughly 20 min behavioral then 20 min case with 5 minutes to ask questions for the live interview. Then the online case as well
anyone heard back from Chicago?
Yeah
Got rejected from chicago
received an invite for southeast!
.
my friend j got it
Anyone knew how waitlist work? Got a email saying I’m waitlisted bc there are not enough interview slots💀
Does anyone know what the general cutoffs are on each interview round (how much do they cull)?
got the SF invite yesterday - does anyone have any resources to prepare for casey?
What day are people's first-round interviews this week?
tomorrow (28th)
for anyone interviewing tomorrow: have people received the online case link yet? they said it was supposed to go out today but i haven't received anything
Doesn’t seem like I received the email. Anyone else?
i found it in my spam folder lol
Does anyone know if you get a call or an email after the first round?
I believe call if you make it email if you don’t. And should be as early as same day if not next couple days
Anyone knows how much impact the online case will have? Thought it was lowkey difficult...
less than the real case but nonzero, it’s hard to say exactly and i’ve heard lots of varying takes on this. i do agree it was pretty tricky tho imo
last year i was told i did terrible on the online case but was still passed, i don’t think it means that much if you had a good other interview
Anyone know when we hear back after R1?
Should be in two days (Friday) I believe. Final rounds are happening a week after that (Sept. 6)
So there isn't a second round? It just goes straight from first round to final round?
how do you know final rounds are the 6th?
Are you sure about final rounds? some people were scheduled for the 4th for R1 so that’s seems like a very very quick turnaround
following in case anyone hears back.
How did you all do on the casebot? Wondering how much that is weighted compared to the live case
Got one math question wrong (realized immediately after submitting it fml) and don’t think I did well on the final recommendation. Did pretty well on everything else
Anyone heard back after R1?
if for the great lakes, we will prob hear back tmr
anyone know if this is true for mid atlantic?
Heard they already handed out final rounds for the West, is that true?
West or southwest?
West
Deleted
Heard back for Chicago
Good or bad? Was it a call?
Good news! Was just an email
Recieved final SW. just an email
Did you apply to Dallas?
No
got final round for SF
nvm... how do i delete a comment help
anyone hear back about midatlantic??
nope
naw
just heard back (email)
dc?
which office was it?
curious what locations are included in mid-atlantic... is it just philly, pitt & dc?
Anyone hear back from Dallas?
I did, invited for final round Friday 9/6
Anyone hear back from southeast?
.
Just got rejection email
Heard back from NE. I think it's all over email for R1 this year
Just got rejection for Philly
anyone hear back for LA office yet?
Got waitlisted for Brooklyn final round...anyone have a sense as to what my chances are to get off the waitlist? Really unfortunate as I think I did well on the live case but made a couple of small mistakes on the chatbot. Thanks!
Had a friend waitlisted then got it, hope isn’t lost. Would definitely follow up with continued interest
Thanks so much for the info. I wrote them back saying that I’m interested in being placed on the waitlist - is there anything else that your friend did beyond a straightforward interest email? Really hoping to get this final round as BCG is my top choice. Thanks again!
I’m interviewing for the west soon so probably they didn’t release their second rounds
Different offices have different releasing times I believe
anybody else get offered a mock case by an associate from the office you're interviewing at? got one shortly after my R2 invite was sent. was just wondering i this was a good sign TT
Which office?
nj
Just heard back with R2 West after interviewing this Wednesday
Congrats man I got rejected praying for ya 🤞🏿🙏🏿
Does anyone know when we will hear back after R2 today?
Anyone else with r2 west?
Interviewed this morning, just got my offer call from Dallas!

Anyone hear back from NJ R2?
you interviewed yesterday?
Anyone heard back from BK round 2?
is it over if we didn’t get a call after round 2 yday?
wondering this as well. saw on reddit someone got offer after r2 in dc.
I wanna say there’s still hope because there’s a second wave of final rounds happening this Friday for some offices for sure
i hope so. i thought mine went great.
Anyone heard from nyc or ne offices?
got rejection email.
same
For what office?
dc
did anyone get an email from BK office saying that decisions are being pushed back to next week?
did you?
yeah. wondering if that's the case for everyone or just people they're still deciding on
Same thing for PHL office. I got called instead of emailed. Decisions come out this Friday
Oh interesting! They gave you a call today saying that decisions will be out on Friday? Did they say anything else?
Anyone heard anything? NE offices preferred - haven’t heard anything nor has anyone else in my boat
Received my rejection not NE tho
Has anyone interviewed for the Great Lakes office today heard back yet?
Has anybody that interviewed today heard back in general? Across all offices?
Phone call from nyc 1 hr ago; interviewed midday
