I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Washington, DC) in Sep 2018
Interview
Final round interview in the DC office. 2 interviews and each last 40 min. 1 case for each interview and very few behavioral questions. Cases are about market sizing and analyzing strategies. Almost no behavioral questions, even no self introduction

Application
I interviewed at Bain & Company (Brussels)
Interview
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.
