I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Los Angeles, CA) in Jan 2013
Interview
The whole process is very friendly and well organized. Both first round and second round are both at the company. Frist round is two 30 min case with two associate consultants, second round is three 45 min case with two VPs and one partner. Everyone is really nice and willing to talk with you.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Jakarta) in Mar 2026
Interview
Interview on market sizing, you are expected to lead the interview and the interviewer will follow through only to ask questions to you if you make mistakes. Not that stressful.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Market sizing of a potential market of a certain product
2 back to back case for the first round. Depending on the time you finish the case and you may be asked BQ, but i didn't. I think the case is more creative than the traditional one in terms of structure and questions
Two standard case interviews and one behavioral. Conducted with partners. Interviewers were professional and the cases were on the challenging side. Felt that I was able to complete with a little time to spare.
