I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bain & Company (London, England) in Nov 2017
Interview
Very nice people - Market Sizing and CV interview (45 mins) followed by Case study and CV interview (45 mins) - two different young ACs who had been at Bain for about a year and a half so far. Both were friendly and helpful at leading through the cases.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Estimate the annual revenues of the average bike shop.
Tell me about x aspect of your CV
Why Bain? Why consulting?
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.

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.
