Lol thanks D1 for your input but they switched it up now.

Frankly if they switched it for round 2, ask your recruiter what the format will be. I was interviewing kids last year (or early this year I guess) and there’s no behavioral in round 1; round 2 behavioral for me was like... why consulting, why Bain, walk me through your resume type of stuff. Nothing like the McK structured behavioral.

Be yourself. It easy to spot fake behavior.

Bain doesn't do behavioral interviews. The bhg behavioral component is assessed through your attitude during the case interviews - expect a Partner/Principal to engage in conversation unrelated to the case during that time.

Lol?

It’ll be a conversation on why consulting? Why this office location? Some questions about your background. Just come across as genuine, likable, professional, and clear/crisp
