  • 1Advanced-degree and campus deadlines: pymetrics — twelve short mini-games taking roughly 20–30 minutes — was officially required alongside the video in the 2021–22 cycle; the vendor was acquired by Harver in 2022 and no current official BCG page we could verify still names it, so treat it as office-dependent and declining.

  • 3Tell me about a problem or experience in which you had to change your approach.
  • 4Tell me about yourself — walk me through your background.
  • 5Bridge to BCG: expect a general behavioural one-way interview reported as three questions with unlimited thinking time, about 2–3 minutes to answer each, roughly 45 minutes total, and one chance to re-record each question.

Questions reveal one at a time inside the mock — just like the real interview. Percentiles are practice benchmarks from our calibrated pool, not employer scores.

What to expect in the BCG video interview

Question research coverage: One-way (asynchronous) video interview on the Spark Hire platform, documented by BCG's own candidate materials for advanced-degree and campus-deadline applications and for Bridge to BCG, with candidate reports adding internship and Visiting Associate tracks. Not a global stage: BCG's current office-level pages for Mexico, Switzerland and Brazil, and the global interview-process page, describe no video round at all. Treat the video as program-, office- and cycle-specific, and possibly historical rather than current practice.

This mock uses a realistic one-way video timed format: 30 seconds to prepare, then recording starts automatically with a 2-minute cap — a common configuration, but employers choose their own settings, so BCG's question count, timing, and retake allowance may differ. Practice retakes are unlimited here; many real configurations allow few or none, so treat your first take as the one that counts.
