The set up was two case interviews, no behavioral component. They did not ask any personal questions and the cases were back to back. Mine was virtual and over zoom.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Bain & Company (San Francisco, CA) in Sep 2025
Interview
I applied in early to mid July 2025 and received the invitation to the first round interview in mid September. The process was two rounds. The first round was a 1-hour interview with two back to back 30 minute case interviews. The second round was a longer 2 hour interview with a mix of behavorials as well as harder case studies. I got denied after the first round.
