Turnaround time on BCG decisions

Hi,

I'm an advanced degree consultant candidate at BCG; my decision round interview was 4 days ago. I'm curious how long it usually takes to hear back one way or the other. After my first round interview (which was on a friday) I heard back the following monday afternoon. So I'm wondering whether this decision takes longer, or whether I should be expecting a ding at this point. Thanks for any insight.

For final rounds, turnaround is same day for people who are extended offers. At least this was the case for Associate recruiting in the SF office. One guy I know got a call within an hour after his interviews.

 

Yeah, don't get too caught up. Most people do hear right away, but if you're really borderline, it could take a while. I also know someone who was asked to reinterview for a different office, so anything's possible.
