The interview process at Bain is very structured, clearly communicated, challenging case interviews. You are interviews by consultants and each interview has a clear purpose structure. The further you progress, the more senior the interviewers
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
- Why Bain?
- Why Consulting?
- What was a situation in which you had to meet a tight deadline and how did you approach it?
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.
