Please describe the interview / hiring process.
I applied through my school's on-campus portal, and I believe I was selected for a first-round interview because of my academic stats and cover letter. No real consulting experience, though I have experience in research. Bain seems to be more data-driven than the other two MBBs, so that could be a talking point during the interview. Both interviews (2 cases, ~30 min each) were interviewer-led. Mental math and market sizing was interspersed within the case. Case was data-driven (they will provide you with graphics). A difficulty of this case format was that I wasn't sure where to go with my questions, so that the interviewer could provide me with the next sequential graphic handout. Be strategic in the data you request to see. Interviewers were helpful and friendly. Minimal behavioral questions for both.
