Bain & Company Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details First round interview consisted of two back-to-back case studies with opportunities for questions afterwards. You are allowed writing paper but be sure to keep your notes reasonably tidy as they do retain them to remember which candidate was who - and you certainly don't want to end up with a nasty scribble that I had jotted down on my first case study.

Interview Details Case studies. Examine the drop of revenue in a fertilizer wholesaler.

Interview Details Case study interviews- both small (e.g. what is the revenue of a gym in Sydney) and large (data and handouts, lots of calcs for a holiday resort case with multiple questions on performance and scope for performance improvement).
Cases looked for a clearly structured, linear logic. Take a minute to collect your thoughts- when I spoke off the top of my head it was less well received than calmly sitting back and thinking.

Interview Details 2 Rounds

1st Round, involved 2 cases, one hour each, with two separate individuals at the firm.
2nd Round involved another case and small talk with one of the partners at the firm.

Interview Details Two rounds of interviews. First round on campus, with two case interviews. Second round was at the Bain office, with another two case interviews (this time with more senior people). Everyone was very friendly and helpful throughout, and the company was very generous with accommodations for the second round. Company was also very good about having alumni reach out to you for practice before each round of interviews.

Interview Details The entire process consisted of four interviews (two sets of two back-to-back interviews). The first two took place on my college campus, and for the second two I was flown out to my preferred office. I got the interviews through networking emails and phone calls. All of my interviewers were very relaxed, though it was clear that they expected me to produce when it came to the case. Very brief small talk at the beginning - "What's your story?" kind of questions, and then they would jump into the case.

Interview Details 2 Rounds of 4 Interviews all case interviews

Interview Details On-campus recruiting event, followed by Information session on how to Ace a case interview. Overall very organized system. Got assigned a buddy (a 2nd year AC), even though just 4-5 days before the first-round interview.

First-round interview on campus made up of two 30 minute long case interviews.
