As a top-tier strategy firm, we seek to change the way the world works. We form partnerships with our clients to solve their biggest challenges and shape their future together. The work our consultants do has a lasting impact on companies, industries and society and, as a result, we are always looking for creative, driven and collaborative personalities to join our consulting team. If you think that sounds like you, a career at BCG may be a great fit.
The programme
As part of our mission to find the best talent, our Mentorship Programme for first year students is now open. Please note that this scheme is open to students of all disciplines and does not require a prior interest in consulting. The programme will run throughout February and March 2024.
We will match selected students with one of our consultants to offer 1-1 mentorship, during which you'll have the chance to ask all your consulting questions and get advice on how to best prepare for applications, for BCG and beyond. It is a great opportunity for you to get to know us, while getting useful advice and practice to give you the best preparation for the world of work. You will also have the chance to join us for a day in our London offices to experience our culture and the role of a consultant firsthand.
