Interview Details Interviewed in New Delhi, India for Bain Capabiity Centre. The first round was a market sizing round.

Interview Details I got the interview through Campus Recruitment. The selection was a 4 step process:

1. CV Submission and Shortlisting: They looked at a balance between academic prowess and extra curricular achievements, the cover letter should reflect the same.

Bain & Co. are extremely helpful throughout the process, they're eager to answer your questions and guide you. They even conducted case workshops and an interview guide.

2. Written Round: Data Interpretation (Reading graphs and assigning tags, etc. Mostly multiple choice) and arrangement of slides in a logical coherent order and writing out an executive summary.

3. 1:1 Interviews: Two interviews of guess estimations. The interviewers were nice, though one seemed kinda mean and disinterested.

4. Final Round: Panel Interview with 6 Senior Analysts, consisting of Case Interviews

Interview Details 1) GMAT
2) Group Discussions
3) 3 rounds of interview

Negotiation Details – I only negotiated the start date, and it was regular. I didn't have any trouble.

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 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.
