I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Munich, Bavaria) in Sept 2013
Interview
Got invited about two week after submitting my resume and had three rounds of interviews with consultants and one partner. Relaxed overall atmosphere during the standard interviews: cases and personal info + fit.
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.
The interview was overall efficiently run and very professional. It had 2 stages; a case interview typical of management consuting interviews and a fit interview to assess cultural fit with the firm.
