Where data meets strategy: build skills that drive business growth

At BCG, our purpose is to unlock the potential of those who advance the world. We do this by partnering with leading companies to help them solve for their most complex challenges. This simulation will introduce you to the foundational skills behind data-driven problem solving and the skills that are relevant across disciplines, roles, and career paths. 

Over the course of two short, interactive tasks (30–60 minutes each), you will explore how to analyze real-world data, uncover patterns, and translate insights into actionable recommendations.

Whether you are exploring a potential career in consulting, analytics, or strategy, this experience offers a hands-on introduction to how BCGers use data to drive impact.

Disclaimer: Participation in this job simulation is not an employment relationship with BCG. It is our policy that you do not list your completion of this program as work or internship experience on your CV, LinkedIn, or any other social media or professional platform. For guidance on how to accurately represent your experience, review the Forage CV referencing policy.

 

This program is self-paced. It takes approximately 1-2 hours to complete.
