I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Bain & Company (New York, NY) in Mar 2014
Interview
The interview process was very engaging. With two rounds: one with the senior consultant who tagged teamed with the Director. The questioned asked were basically behavioral and subjective to MBA. The second round was fully case interview and was tough but I made it through. I was interviewed by two Directors for the second round.

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.
