I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bain & Company (New York, NY) in Feb 2018
Interview
The interview included two thirty minute case interviews. Each case interview was conducted as a 1:1 interview. The interviewers were friendly and making it easy to be comfortable going through the case. There was also a brief fit portion of the interview that included questions like "Why Bain?" or "Why this office?"

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Size the market for sliced bread in the U.S. Size the market for snack bars in the U.S. Why consulting? Why Bain? Tell me about yourself
Not stressful. Worked through two cases online. The questions were not too difficult and straightforward. Interviewers were friendly and helped steer the case problems in the right direction. Overall very positive experience.
very informal and conversational interviewers were helpful and nice very enjoyable experience overall
the case was challenging but the interviewers walked me through it I would recommend interviewing for this program the only downside is that you will not hear back until a month after the interviewer which could be extremely nerve racking.
