Anyone know if theres a gc or discord for consulting recruiting tracking? Would be cool so we could all get a sense of timeline!

Here's the discord community to update the latest news and timeline for MBB, I'll drop a link here for your consideration:

“If you do not hear from our team by April 25, we will re-review your candidacy during the June 28 application drop. You will automatically be reconsidered and you do not need to re-apply. You will receive an application status update the week of July 17.” — this was from an email they sent to candidates who were pushed from the April 3rd to June 28th round

 

Has anyone heard abt R1 from Bain? I suspect it should be today or tomorrow given what has been said in this thread but im so anxious lol

 

Did anyone else get an email saying that "all full-time interviews will be hosted after the September deadline"? Did people who got a first round get something similar or was there a different/ more straightforward email sent? 

 

Received a note from Bain Chicago that FT interviews will all be delayed until after the Sept deadline (interviews conducted started Sept 25th). ACI interviews are going to be conducted on time. If anyone has received the same information or can echo something similar for other offices please weigh in

Same thing, also Chicago

 

What offices does it say on ur email, just curious because I applied to ATL

 

Are the interviews in person or on zoom? If they’re in person are they based on your office and if they are what happens if you can’t make it to that location?

to my understanding it is a combination: both your school recruiter and your first choice office are guaranteed to read your application

 

Did anyone get notified from CREW Bain Chicago office? I thought that we were guaranteed a R1 for ACI but got no email

 

So does CREW guarantee final round? Or is it like, if I get to R1, I will automatically be sent to final?

Are you in CREW and what office? Also source? 

 

Did anyone else apply to bain Seattle and get an interview about being impressed by your application but all interviews will take place after September deadline? Does anyone know about this office's specific recruiting process also?

 

at a target school in the midwest and have friends who received Chicago ACI R1s, they're interviewing next Monday and Tuesday (7/17,7/18)

 

Has anyone had a recruiter reach out ahead of their scheduled ACI interview for Bain per the email that said “A recruiter will be in touch in advance of your interview date with additional details.”

 

I think it depends which office. Heard from recruiter that Bain Texas was sending out invites on a rolling basis through end of July.
