I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Bain & Company in Jan 2022
Interview
Case-based interviews as well as personal background interviews (based largely on resume and anecdotes from prior work experience). Case-based interviews are very rigorous and require some combination of hypothesis development, data analysis and interpretation, theory building, and creativity in solutions and presentation. Most are done in 30-45 minutes
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.
First round case interviews. Got standard questions about profitability and market entry. IMO the most difficult part was reading complex charts and distilling the key insights with time pressure. There was little behavioral.
