I applied through college or university. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Bain & Company
Interview
Two 30 minute cases that were very challenging, each with a different interviewer. Initial structuring of framework was not as useful as useful in my opinion. Required ability to analyze complex charts quickly and use that to drive insights. There was no behavioral component. Received a call the night of saving that I was not proceeding to the next and final round. The two interviewers made the process less stressful and were pleasant to chat to before and after the interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Challenging case that did not proceed in a linear manner and often required atypical thinking to succeed.
2 cases for R1. Pretty straightforward cases about revenue optimization opportunities. There was a little bit of market sizing but all data needed was given. No behaviorals asked in round 1 for me.
