I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Bain & Company (London, England) in Nov 2017
Interview
1. CV Screening + Online test
2. Round 1 (2 interviews) - Market Sizing case questions
3. Final Round (3 interviews)
First interview you present your findings from a document they give you to read for 30 mins - VERY TIME RESTRAINED!
Second interview is as standard case interview: Profitability and/or growth cases.
Final interview: Very vague interview, strategy based case. Normally on real life case that the interviewer did.
It was fine. The partner round interviews were less structured and much more difficult. Majority of my interviewers were really nice which made the process better than what I had anticipated.
2 rounds of interviews, each round consisting of 3 interviews with cases. In the first round 2 case interviews and 1 with HR. In the 2nd round you have 3 interviews with more senior profiles like managers and partners.
Interviewers were really nice, but the process was difficult. Standard level cases and they expected you to take them through multiple business problems. If you practice casing frequently with multiple partners, you should be fine.
