The process took 2 months in total. You apply with CV and cover letter, and get invited for SOVA tests. The interviews took around 3-4 weeks, 2 rounds in total. The first has 2 case studies (1 hour each) and 1 fit interview (45 minutes), and the last has 2 case studies.

Question 1
Had a mix of case studies, some were complex with loads of math to do, some were simpler (market sizing). Fit is extremely important.
Really smooth and clear. Was supported at every stage and felt like I could clearly demonstrate my skills. Found the casing harder than expected but behaviorals were genuinely interesting to answer.

Question 1
Imagine you are working on an M&A case and you meet a friend for dinner who works for that company and has just been fired. He reports huge issues that are non-public material information. What would you do?
I applied through college or university. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Bain & Company in Mar 2026
Interview
Very Professional and Structured. Unique way of process with the behavioural and written case on top of the standard case. 2 round, total 5 interviews.
All the interviewers are really nice, genuinely want you to succeed.
MBA on-campus recruiting cycle. One super day of two cases and one behavioral. All done by partners. Countless coffee chats before actual interview day. Interview was in-person, but not at local office for which we were interviewing.
