I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Los Angeles, CA) in Oct 2016
Interview
Applied in college. Selected and invited to a case workshop with all first round invitees. On-campus interview with 2 rounds. Each round is 30 minutes case interview with a consultant on a case he or she has worked on before.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Case questions, one on a pub with losing revenue and one on whether a billionaire should invest in a sport arena
2 cases for R1. Pretty straightforward cases about revenue optimization opportunities. There was a little bit of market sizing but all data needed was given. No behaviorals asked in round 1 for me.
