Bain ACI 2021 Final Round Interview Decisions

Just wanted to start this forum topic since I know a few of us are feeling antsy about Bain final round decisions. I would be interested in hearing about your ACI final round calls and the turnaround time to receiving an acceptance or rejection. Please post if you have or have not received an acceptance, and for which region of the US! Also let us know how your overall interview went from your perspective, and how well that matched the outcome. Thank you!

I noticed on LinkedIn that there are some students who have accepted ACI positions for summer 2021 in Washington, DC. I'm wondering if that was based on their college recruiting timelines, or if all DC acceptances have come out.

 

I just had an interview yesterday, and I was wondering if anyone who interviewed yesterday (10/9) has received a call yet?

 

I thought ACI interviews for the west coast happened a week ago. Is your timing school-specific?

 

Thank you this helps a lot... I've heard that they usually call the night of if it's an offer :/.

 

My friend had an interview with a west coast US office last week and they sent out a rejection already.

 

Any news from anyone recently? I can't help but wonder why none of us have received calls.

 

Not yet and I don't know if anyone else has because I don't know anyone else that interviewed hten

 

Hi lden! I interviewed with a NE office this week and am still waiting for a call. When you received your offer call, did one of the partners or managers you interviewed with call you, or was it one of the HR recruiters? Thanks in advance! Also congratulations!
