I applied online. I interviewed at Bain & Company in Nov 2015
Interview
Consisted of two interviews - one about the CV with a brief market sizing question and the other was a full case study, which the interviewer guided me through (they print out a powerpoint and you have to work your way through it). Both interviewers were extremely nice and supportive, made me feel at ease.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A small market sizing question about the revenue of a tennis court and a longer case study on how to increase profits
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.
