I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Dallas, TX) in Oct 2016
Interview
I did a first round interview at my school, and then was flown out to their Dallas office for a final round interview. Everyone was super nice and welcoming. Each interview was a case interview, and the first round interviews were a little bit easier than the final round interviews. They really like asking market sizing questions
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.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What office did you choose and why? Do you have competing offers?
2 rounds, 1st round 2 small cases, not very difficult , market entry cases.
2nd long case with a deck to read and prepare answers..45 mins to read, 15 mins to answer
Three rounds of interviews, generally 2 rounds in person or remote with live consultants. Each round involves a 2-3 case interviews each, which generally also include a set of behavioural questions.
