      Sankaty Advisor Interview

      Oct 9, 2011
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Boston, MA
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bain Capital (Boston, MA) in Mar 2011

      Interview

      Bain Capital (Sankaty) employed case interviews similar to those used by consulting firms. More focus on entrepreneurial thought than consulting interviews. 5 cases, half hour each. 4 were case focuses with other investors, and one was behavioral with the Human Resources person. Overall case problems were similar with slightly harder math than Big 3 consulting firms.

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      Would you consider yourself entrepreneurial?

      Question 2
