Bain & Company Anyone have any insights on the Bain & Company waitlist? Was placed on it a few days after final round, not sure if it means an offer is now a real possibility or a complete long-shot.

What was the exact wording communicated to you?

It was a phone call so I don't know word-for-word but they said that they have to calibrate number of spots available before issuing a final decisions and that I'll hear back in January (but were highly complimentary otherwise)

Is this for US EH C for March 26 start? They just reopened a new cycle of applications for that, would be curious whether the waitlist is for October cycle or will they also weigh it against all applicants including those currently still in the process. The deadline to make a decision was Dec 19 for the October cycle so they might be able to consolidate responses and inform waitlist applicants of their status if they are not waiting for this new cycle of applicants as well.

US EH AC for March 2026 start. I was told to expect an update in Jan so that's presumably before they know about this second wave.

I’m an accounting advisory M2 in Los Angeles and hoping to find a position around $150k in industry. However a recruiter said that’s too high and I should be looking more around $130-140k, I can’t tell though if she’s being honest or just hoping I’ll take a smaller salary so that she can get an easier commission. Thoughts?
