The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bain & Company in Oct 2009
Interview
1 first round interview; 1 hour, 2 case interviewers (1 interviewer per case). One of them was not very motivated/attentive; was checking email during the time and clearly just wanted to get over with the interview. In retrospect, I should've been more aggressive with him. Cases were focused on incremental revenue.
Other Associate Consultant Interview Reviews for Bain & Company
Drei Interviewrunden, je ein Interviewer: zwei englischsprachige Case Studies (Interviewer-geführt, strukturiert) sowie Personal Fit mit situativen Fragen ohne CV-Bezug - keine Angaben zu Praktika oder Uni gefragt. Stattdessen Reaktionsfragen à la „Wie würdest du in Situation XYZ reagieren?". Mit solider Vorbereitung nichts Unerwartetes. Alle Interviewer sehr freundlich und aufgeschlossen — angenehme, entspannte Atmosphäre throughout.
2 rounds of 3 interviews.
The first round includes a fit interview.
All interviews feel very relaxed, but they still expect you to move through the case fast and in a structured way.
