I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Munich, Bavaria) in Mar 2016
Interview
Extensive and in-depth interviews with senior management and direct peers, testing . Transported culture and vision extremely well -wer humble, respectful but challenging and quality focused. Constant feedback was given - and the interviews went from good to great.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Background, motivators, vision for professional and personal development, how I wanted to grow with this opportunity
Interview was medium difficulty. Team was very collaborative during the interview providing tips was needed not holding grudge on small mistakes. You get to interview peers from the same team that you’re joining as well as the associate partner. From the interview viewers experience it seems like there is a lot to learn from the job, but it can also be very demanding client travel specifically seems to be most
As expected for MBB. Excellent performances needed and back up from Senior partner. Internal interview. If you came for outside Bain you will have to go through case interviews which are challenging and need time for prep.
