submitted resume through an employee I met and had some conversation (the employee forwarded my resume to the HR), got phone interview by an employee (not HR) (rescheduled once because the interviewer was too busy and forgot the interview), got email within one week saying hired. It was for an PTA position in China, not in the States, though.

Question 1
No market sizing problems, just some inventory stuff
I applied online. I interviewed at Bain & Company (China Spring, TX) in Feb 2016
Interview
phone interview, quick. It is with a consultant. And the questions are pretty random. I know a girl was asked to translate something. And my only advice is to be relax and clear minded. Don't be afraid to ask questions back to clarify the question.
