I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Boston, MA) in Mar 2013
Interview
Applied via school, first round of interviews on campus, later in company offices. Interviews were almost entirely case interview questions, though there was some resume walkthrough and background questions such as why do you want to work in management consulting and why at Bain?
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Standard case interview questions, helpful to practice.
Three rounds of interviews, generally 2 rounds in person or remote with live consultants. Each round involves a 2-3 case interviews each, which generally also include a set of behavioural questions.
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.
