London Office Not Accepting Referrals?

Hi there,

First of all, I am sorry to hear about your negative experience!

I would be happy to share my thoughts on your situation:

• First of all, it sounds like the referrer is not from the UK, which could be a problem. Depending on the country, referrals from one country may not be valid for an application for another country, both from a rules-based and technical perspective.
• Moreover, please keep in mind that a referral coming from someone from another office or even another country is usually perceived as weaker.
• Lastly, the only thing you can do is ask the referrer to further investigate the situation.

You can find more on this topic here: How to succeed in the final interview round.

If you would like a more detailed discussion on how to best prepare for your upcoming Bain interviews, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Best,

Hagen
