BCG rumored to not hire UG/MS this cycle, per Management consulted
Per management Consulted email, BCG may not be hiring UG/MS this cycle interns included. Curious to hear from those in the loop or at BCG what internal talks look like.

Stop monkey shitting me I’m just the messenger
It may be joever.
Lmao my friend who did bridge to consulting has an interview next week. Fake news!
Don't think this will materialize, have been given application deadlines by campus recruiting team. Said applications will open 4-6 weeks before deadlines.
Do you know what the deadlines are?
Also, they're not rolling like Bain, right?
I’m no longer at BCG so can’t speak to anything directly, but thinking about this, it makes zero sense.
The difference between hiring a small class / having a low yield for interns vs. hiring NO interns is huge from a messaging perspective and small from a financial perspective. If BCG really is in trouble and needs to cut back, it makes WAY more sense to cut back to a small intern class (and there’s lots of room to cut, intern classes were in the multiple hundreds of people already by 2020) than to stop intern hiring entirely.
Also, the reality is that interns are cheap and partners are expensive; if you need to cut costs you fire partners, not interns. BCG has always been notorious for cutting early career partners who haven’t had a strong start commercially.
Wouldn't be surprised bc EY pushed all their fall 25 people back again
Parthenon already did
This is entirely false - someone who is at BCG and involved in recruiting
Could I PM with some questions on recruiting?
I'd also love to PM you for questions regarding recruiting--would that be okay?
Makes perfect sense. Consulting is a cost center and zero value add enterprise that serves almost exclusively to provide cover for management. It's the first to go in a souring economy. Deloitte and Booz announced layoffs recently with the loss of their government revenue streams.
Appliation is open fellas
When did it open? I hope I'm not too late.
Anecdotally, my office, one of the bigger ones, sent out an email last week asking for referrals for this year's associate recruiting cycle for both summer intern and FT roles so this appears extremely unlikely.
