BAIN OA - Pure disrespect?
Just finished OA for London Associate role. Took almost 2 hours on the numerical section alone, and I always score well on them. Just complete disrespect to be honest.

It seems like you're frustrated with the Bain Online Assessment (OA) for the London Associate role, particularly the time and effort required for the numerical section. Based on the most helpful WSO content, it's not uncommon for candidates to feel that these assessments are overly demanding or time-consuming. Bain's assessments are designed to be rigorous, reflecting the high standards they maintain for their candidates.
If you're feeling disrespected, you're not alone—many candidates share similar sentiments about the intensity of these tests. However, it's worth noting that excelling in such assessments can set you apart in a competitive process. If you feel the process was unnecessarily grueling, you might consider providing feedback to Bain's recruitment team.
