I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Bain & Company (London, England) in Jan 2019
Interview
I sent my application trough University. I sent cover letter and cv and after a week I was sent a quantitative online test. After taking the test I was called for an interview in London.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
In the online test the mathematical and logical part was quite easy, but there was a section about series that was almost impossible.
2 rounds of interviews, each round consisting of 3 interviews with cases. In the first round 2 case interviews and 1 with HR. In the 2nd round you have 3 interviews with more senior profiles like managers and partners.
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.
