I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bain & Company in Oct 2010
Interview
I applied online and then was called for the first round. Mixed feelings. I did OK on the cases but the feedback was that I was "too precise on the math" (guess I should not have pointed out the math error the interviewer made) and that I was not "convincing". They let me know the same day, so at least I did not have to wait around but I kind of expected more. One of the interviewers was nice, but one was arrogant so it left me with a not very good impression.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Boston, MA)
Interview
Very structured process with case interviews and behavioral. Most easily accessed through on campus recruiting. Very structured and helpful that timing and feedback are quick and clear, recruiting typically runs on cycles, with consultant interviews in winter
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Case interviews looking for qualitative and quantitative input
Ghosted by HR for Malaysia office after interviewing 3 rounds. Interviewed by associate, senior associate and partner. Typical consulting case questions. Not too difficult and employees were relatively personable. Would've appreciated better communication from the HR team instead of simple ghosting. do better
I applied online and got a online assessment after ~1 week. I completed the online test but I haven't heard back since then. The timeline is a bit uncertain to me.
