I applied online. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Kuala Lumpur) in Mar 2016
Interview
it was a friendly process. we had pre-interview networking event prior to the interview itself, so we can talk to the interviewer prior the real interview. The idea of this networking event is to make us feel comfortable with the interview process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
a fast food company in the US is planning to enter the Malaysian market. Would you recommend?
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.
