I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Bain & Company (São Paulo, ) in Mar 2015
Interview
One GMAT style test followed by CV analysis, group case and three rounds of 2 cases each.
The group case was interesting. How each one interacted within the group was far more important than the result itself.
Some cases were a lot harder than others. And they didn't follow any pattern, some were interviewer led others cadidate led.
I found this fact the most difficult during the interviews. The case I failed, I thought the interviewer was leading it, as he kept asking questions and didn't give me time to explain how the answer related to the problem or to state the next steps, but in the end he said that even though I answered most of the questions correctly I should had been more proactive.
I applied online. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Athènes, , Attique)
Interview
Firstly there was an online test. Then 5 rounds of interviews. First round is a market sizing case and then business cases. They give subscription to casecoach to help candidates prepare
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Estimate the annual revenues of a restaurant in London.
Had guestimation and case study round. Both the rounds were quite easy. Interviewer was chill. Questions were asked based on Microsoft apps like word, excel. Other quality based questions were also asked. This is for internship role
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Los Angeles, CA)
Interview
2 rounds, 1 round only case B2B 30 minute with different people. Applied by a referral. Great experience I just wasn't up to par on my case interview prep. Needed to practice more.
