Bain & Company Any advice for an upcoming Bain interview? I wasn't expecting to get an interview from them, but I did wrap up one from BCG.

Should I expect Bain's to be any different?

Very similar - if you were well prepped for BCG, you'll be well prepped for Bain (as long as you also have a clear "why Bain")

I would expect one of your cases to be an M&A case, which is the same as regular cases except at the start of the recommendation you frame it as “call / kill the investment because…”

I also have a final round coming up - any major differences in terms of the case? Can I still expect the same slide-based format or will it be more conceptual/conversational?

My first rounds and final rounds were exactly the same format; arguably final round was easier since partners are a bit more interested in getting to know you vs evaluating your case (though you still need a very tight case)

which office? and what role?

Hi guys, After CAF completion by last week, yesterday I received a call from the HR for the second round of evaluation.

But suddenly today I received an email that my candidature isn't suitable for the role and they're keeping my profile in the database. Does this mean they'll call me if there are openings with some other project?

I currently work as an APM at a FAANG company but recently received an offer to join an MBB. I’m very excited about the role but didn’t realize I’d need to take a pay cut when I applied (~100k base + ~20k bonus + ~60k equity vs. 90k base + 10-20k bonus). Considering that I currently work 40-60 hours/week, I’ll be making significantly less per hour at the MBB. I’m very interested in the opportunity but also don’t want to make a poor financial decision early in my career. Thank you for your time!
