I got a parthenon rejection earlier in the week, but that was replied back to a specific enquiry so I'm not sure if they've actually done shortlisting or not. Hope that helps!
Was there a chance to upload a CV during BDO's application for Management Consulting?
Just need someone to confirm this!
Yeah there was. You could also upload a cover letter, but having bashed out 900 words for their application I honestly couldn't face doing that as well

Really? Looked through the whole app and didn't find anywhere to do it! There was a separate section on the profile but nothing on the app itself..
for parthenon did anyone get an email confirming that their app was submitted. I'm certain I went all the way through process but got no email confirmation
No, I did not get a confirmation either, but I emailed them the next day to ask and they confirmed they received it.
Had phone interview with KPMG on monday after having to wait 3 extra weeks because I got food poisoning and had to reschedule. Been told they are arranging my AC and will be in touch in the next 2-3 weeks.

Was that for straight Management Consulting? Or Strategy group?
Amazing. I was just about to email them to withdraw from the process (as I've accepted an offer elsewhere) but they've saved me the effort.
Timeline wise:
- Applied mid September and less than a week later, I was told that I'd passed the screening and testing and that somebody would be "in touch with you within the next two weeks to organise a telephone interview."
- Early October, I get a generic "we're still looking at obtaining dates for your interview and will be in touch" email.
- Zero communication until the above email received Friday evening (two months after being told they'd be giving me an interview)
I suspect I'm not the only one who got this email?
For those of you still looking for a position, and who probably wasted hours upon hours preparing for a promised telephone interview that never materialised, I'm truly sorry.
What's that saying in business? Something about under promising and over delivering...

Risk and Regulation I applied late august I think but delayed it because of my own illness more than their being full. Although we'll see now if an AC materialises.

never got the email, but as I got through over the phone and was told the same thing I feel the same level of annoyance. Time wasters.
