I applied online. I interviewed at Bain & Company in May 2025
Interview
I had the Test gorilla for the online test. It wasn't too bad if you pace yourself well and read the questions carefully, they should be simple enough to complete the full test with extra time. You can't, however, go back to change your answers later.
I interviewed at Bain & Company (Gurgaon, Haryana)
Interview
The interview was good but the questions were not what you will expect. It can be anything related to your COE and and as basic as what how to start a business.
Make sure you understand the COE well and knowledge what kind of work they do in the respective COE

Straightforward. Two rounds of two interviews each. Second round cases a bit more complex and ambiguous. Overall, case topics were straightforward, but I heard others got bit weirder topics than me
