Hi everyone,
At the Bain new behavioural interview format, where you get asked 8 questions, 4 of them will be hypothetical.
How would you advise answering to the hypothetical question such as: “Your teammate is suddenly sick and asks if you can do his work; what would you do?”
Are we allowed to ask clarifying questions or they want us to directly make a few assumptions such as: “I assume the work is urgent and that cannot be postponed. I assume there is nobody else who can take it. etc..".
Would it be appreciated if we say “This actually happened to me and I did his work during the weekend because it was important for the case”, for example?
