“... I believe it was the single biggest reason why I ended up with an offer...”
Mck > BCG > Bain then big drop off to tier 2
Which geographies? Definitely not true for US and European recruiting
People prefer Bain because of their interests in Private Equity or Bain's staffing model or culture fit. That doesn't mean Bain is a "better" firm that McK or BCG. Discussions like these have been played out multiple times.
Having worked in 2 out of 3 MBBs, your question is just painful to read.
Depends on the personal fit. There is no general rule.
When I think of MBA peers who got offers from all three, I recall McK and BCG outcomes, but no Bain.
In general McK wins the most cross-offers.
However, at my school I think BCG had an edge.
In contrast, I know another top business school where Bain is the best cultural fit and where it wins a lot of cross-offers.
OP's question is borderline retarded/troll.
EDITED: I overstated Bain winning triple cross-offers at my M7 - I am sure it happens but the example I had in mind was wrong upon further recollection.
