Hi All,
I applied for Bain's experienced hire position (Consultant) at their London office.
I have been called for an online test. Can someone please shed some light on what to expect, format, no. and type of questions etc. How best to prepare? Any sample tests, websites will be helpful as well.
Thanks

Hello!
It´s a comprehensive test that includes quant and verbal problems, integrated reasoning and interpretation, etc. Hence, very similar to the GMAT exam -I even got some data suficency questions, that are literally from the GMAT exam-.
There are free exams in the internet that you can use for practice (the one of LBS MBA page, Verits prep, as well as some free trials for courses such as the one of The Economist (https://gmat.economist.com/)
Hope it helps!
Cheers,
Clara
Hi Vivek,
until few months ago the test was structured as follows, I would check with HR if that's the case for you as well:
I would recommend to practice on SHL simulations covering the parts above to prepare.
Hope this helps,

Hi,
the interview will be structured in 3 parts:
- Personal Experience Interview: fit and CV questions to assess your personal impact, leadership skills, and entrepreneurial spirit
- Case Interview: typical business case to evaluate your structure in approaching problems, problem-solving skills, and business sense
- Your final questions to the interviewers
Feel free to text me for some tips about the preparation. I have supported tens of experienced professionals in crafting impactful stories and structuring business cases.
Best,
Antonello
Hello Vivek,
Can you tell me how long after you apllied did you receive the invitation to the assessment?. I applied about a week ago nd although they state that I should receive the link within a week, I haven't received it yet. Is it not part of the initial screening? Or only those who pass the CV screening receive it?
Thank you!
