J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Bain & Company (Princeton, NJ) en oct. 2013
Entretien
Bain recruits at my school, but I got in communication with the firm early by reaching out to a friend of mine. I went through a weeklong networking process of information sessions, coffee chats, and receptions until I received an interview invitation. First round was two thirty minute interviews with Consultants--both case interviews with a good amount of math involved. In the final round, I had two 45 minute interviews with Managers that were more qualitative than my first round. I really enjoyed the people that I met and the vibe of the firm.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Our client is a private equity fund that is looking to acquire company X in the Y market. The company has been growing over the past couple of years so the client believes it to be a good acquisition but they want us to come in and tell them whether their intuition is correct.

Entretien
Drei Interviewrunden, je ein Interviewer: zwei englischsprachige Case Studies (Interviewer-geführt, strukturiert) sowie Personal Fit mit situativen Fragen ohne CV-Bezug - keine Angaben zu Praktika oder Uni gefragt. Stattdessen Reaktionsfragen à la „Wie würdest du in Situation XYZ reagieren?". Mit solider Vorbereitung nichts Unerwartetes. Alle Interviewer sehr freundlich und aufgeschlossen — angenehme, entspannte Atmosphäre throughout.

2 rounds of 3 interviews.
The first round includes a fit interview.
