Hi -
I am preparing for my round 2 interviews at the Bain Dubai office. What format should I expect for round 2? Round 1 had two case interviews without any fit part.
Thx

Hi there,
Indeed Bain started recently to have interviews without fit in Dubai (there were some recent posts on that on PrepLounge).
On the other end, the last candidate I helped for Bain Dubai 1.5 months ago got fit questions in her final, so I would prepare for that just in case.
If you need help please PM me, I have a DB with 20+ real questions asked specifically at Bain Dubai.
Best,
Francesco
Hi there,
First of all, congratulations on passing the first round of interviews at Bain!
This is indeed an interesting question which is probably relevant for quite a lot of users, so I am happy to provide my perspective on it:
In case you want a more detailed discussion on the differences between first and second round interviews at Bain, please feel free to contact me directly.
I hope this helps,
Hagen
Hi there,
You well and truly should be prepared for anything.
That said, the most likely is 2-3 interviews with some combination of case + fit.
It doesn't hurt to check with HR to get a better idea, but, even then, don't go in expecting any one thing, but rather be prepared for a range of scenarios (case w/ lots of charts, case with no charts, all fit no case, all case no fit, market sizing, etc.). Best to be flexible!
For round 2 you should definitely be prepared for Fit interview. Most likely you will have it.
They are removing the fit part because they realized they can still partially assess it during the case part of the interview, and that it was both more time efficient to apply that filter in the later rounds, as well as it was better to have a more experienced consultant doing that assessment.
