Application Portal Bain & Company

Hi All,

I have started an application on the Bain & Company application portal, but would like to change the position I have previously selected. I can not find a link to delete the incomplete application to restart. 

Any advice?

Many thanks in advance and best regards

Shana

Hi Shana,

I think this is an interesting question that may be relevant for many people. I would be happy to share my thoughts on it:

  • First of all, if the application is incomplete and you cannot change the position you applied for anymore, I would advise you to just leave it as it is and start a new application with the correct position, if possible.
  • If, however, the application is just "incomplete" in the sense of not being reviewed by Bain's recruiting team yet, I would highly advise you to reach out to them as soon as possible tomorrow morning to explain the mistake you made and ask for correction.

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

Best,

Hagen

Hi Shana,

It seems a bit strange that you cannot edit an incomplete application but if that’s indeed the case, I would recommend to contact the HR team.

Best,

Francesco

Hello,

Contact the recruiting team! And start a new application (if possible on the platform). The incomplete application won't be reviewed by them in any case.
