How difficult is it to break into Bain Ny from a school on the west coast (non Stanford)? If i do well on the first round and get past it, will there still be a possibility I get turned down for an interview for my final round?

Once you get an interview, your school & background doesn’t matter haha...they use those filters before offering first round interviews. So if you get “past” the first case round, you get a final round...you get “past” the final round, you get an offer.

Bain is super regionally organized, so it can be tough to get into the office that isn’t recruiting at your school. I don’t work at Bain, but that was my experience during my process with them.

OP your school is likely connected to an office who is responsible for recruiting from it.

Read that McK is paying 2K higher than BCG this year which means BCG will probably raise again next year to at least match. However, they can’t just copy McK with 2K to match because that would look bad so they’ll have to beat it again. Then McK and Bain will follow. Barring a devastating recession, I’m guessing this means MBB is all getting raises again next year?
