So what exactly is a job simulation? It is the perfect opportunity to take on practical tasks similar to what our very own BCGers would work on and get a true feel of what it is like to work at BCG as a strategy consultant, technology consultant, and a designer which will give you deeper understanding on what BCG does and help set you up for success when you decide to apply with us.

BCG partners with leaders in business and society to tackle their most important challenges and capture their greatest opportunities. Our diverse, global teams bring deep industry and functional expertise and a range of perspectives to spark impactful change through leading-edge management consulting as well as data science, technology and design, digital ventures, and business purpose. We work in a uniquely collaborative model across the firm and throughout all levels of the client organization to deliver results that help our clients thrive.

In this job simulation, you will gain enviable insight into what it’s like to solve meaningful challenges with our diverse and forward-thinking team. What’s great about our job simulation is the flexibility of it. You’ll get to choose the module or modules that you would like to take and complete all of these tasks and modules anywhere and anytime in the world, allowing you to upskill yourself in your own time and pace.

After finishing each module, you’ll be provided with real work sample answers from our leaders and you can see how top-tier consultants and our designers would have tackled each task, so that you can learn from their approach.

"It was a great experience. The hands-on knowledge gained will be definitely useful. However, a little more guidance as to how the task is to be performed would have helped."-- Student

"It was very informative and gave me an opportunity to learn and use skills applicable to a career at BCG"-- Student from DePauw University

"Simply Amazing Experience. Learned a lot in a very short period of time. You have to look here and there for some help if you're new but this program actually feels like working with the employees on a project in a BCG office. Truly Splendid."-- Student from Manipal University Jaipur

"I liked how comprehensive it was. It didn't just include tasks that I had to do on a Word document or PowerPoint, it included a matching exercise which was new and exciting."-- Student from Carnegie Mellon University

"With this program, I really felt the commitment and added value that strategy consultants do for their clients. I enjoyed working on a concrete example, and I learned a lot of practical skills: How to do a relevant market research, how to analyze, synthesize, and importantly, how to communicate your findings. I loved a lot this last one!"-- Student from University of Genoa
