I applied online. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Londres, Angleterre) in Nov 2017
Interview
CV and cover letter followed by online tests.
First interview round: 2 interviews, 45 mins each.
Interview 1: Case study question on whether to enter the refurbished phone market. Very little information given, follow-up questions not answered.
Interview 2: 'informal' interview. Chatting about university , challenged on why you took certain actions and what you would have done differently.
Very friendly interviewers.
Interviewers were really nice, but the process was difficult. Standard level cases and they expected you to take them through multiple business problems. If you practice casing frequently with multiple partners, you should be fine.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Please walk me through how you would approach this case.
2 cases for R1. Pretty straightforward cases about revenue optimization opportunities. There was a little bit of market sizing but all data needed was given. No behaviorals asked in round 1 for me.
