I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Princeton, NJ) in Apr 2014
Interview
This was on campus recruiting at an Ivy League University. Consulting wasn't the right field for me at the time, but I had wanted to see what it was about. The process was well organized and orchestrated, with helpful feedback from the interviewer an the conclusion of the case study.
Interviewers were really nice, but the process was difficult. Standard level cases and they expected you to take them through multiple business problems. If you practice casing frequently with multiple partners, you should be fine.

Question 1
Please walk me through how you would approach this case.
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.
