I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Bain & Company (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
First round 2 back to back 30 minute cases. Final round was two back to back 45 minute interviews with 30 minute cases and 15 minute behavioral. The behaviorals are very standard and the cases can get more difficult in the final round.
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.
There is a test after which you have to go through several rounds of market sizing and business case interviews, hr interview is separate and asking for general personal experience things
Application
I interviewed at Bain & Company (Brussels)
Interview
2 rounds of 3 interviews.
The first round includes a fit interview.
All interviews feel very relaxed, but they still expect you to move through the case fast and in a structured way.
