I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Dallas, TX) in Sep 2016
Interview
Had my first round on-campus with managers and consultants. Found out I got a final round the next afternoon. Final round was one week later at the office, with a dinner with alumni the night before. Interviews at the final round were with partners. Same level of difficulty, assuming you've done the prep and are comfortable with case interviews
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.
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.
