I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Bain & Company (London, England) in Apr 2015
Interview
Interview was fun. Standard case study interview process was done. Introduction followed by case study. The first round was pretty straightforward, no materials were used except for a verbal introduction of the case followed by interviewer led case study. The second round was a little tricky. As it was over the Internet (applied to different office), the interviewer had a hard time deciding how to show me the charts. The charts were straightforward forward if put in front of someone but over the Internet is a different experience.
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.
