Not at Bain but I do a lot of interviews for my firm. Honestly my best advice is to just try keep the nerves at bay because the majority of high potential candidates that don’t pass have made silly errors or rushed through things due to nerves.

If you’re prone to anxiety stay far away from any caffeine etc.

Just do the best you can in there - the interviewers at Bain are not out to get you or trick you.

Good luck and let us know how it goes!

Is this a toxic trait.. anytime I have an inconvenience, I look for jobs or do I just hate my job. I have applied and received several interviews but when it comes to that point, I back out and decide it’s best to stay. I am also going through IVF and told myself “maybe not best time to leave with insurance and stuff” ugh why am I like this?! I think I just don’t wanna work in general. Adulting sucks

It’s like they don’t know what to say or I make them feel awkward so they don’t bother…I’m trying to focus on a few that have been supportive but it’s hard…Any words of advice? 😞
