I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bain & Company in Nov 2016
Interview
First round interview. Two practice cases, back to back. Whole thing took about 40 minutes. Only one or two behavioral questions. One question was more quant. heavy. Other one more general.

Question 1
"This moving company is looking to enter into the storage pod business. Should they do it?" (Information provided in the interview)
"Where should this company increase their subscription prices?" (graph provided)
Really smooth and clear. Was supported at every stage and felt like I could clearly demonstrate my skills. Found the casing harder than expected but behaviorals were genuinely interesting to answer.

Interview
Very Professional and Structured. Unique way of process with the behavioural and written case on top of the standard case. 2 round, total 5 interviews.
All the interviewers are really nice, genuinely want you to succeed.
MBA on-campus recruiting cycle. One super day of two cases and one behavioral. All done by partners. Countless coffee chats before actual interview day. Interview was in-person, but not at local office for which we were interviewing.
