Bain MBA Power Around - No Call Yet

Question

Hi All,

I had an interview with Bain Yesterday. It was for the MBA power round. I have yet to hear back and am anxious to know:

1. If anyone else received a call, and if so what offices?

2. Is it reasonable to assume that since interview slots went until 6:30pm on a Friday in the offices time zone that perhaps all interviewers weren’t able to meet (Friday especially I’m thinking they wouldn’t want to stay late) and so no calls would go out until the weekend?

Or would they have contacted those accepted yesterday and waiting for rejections until Monday?

I feel I performed relatively well on all aspects of the interview.

Cheers,

Answer 1

Your time expectations are not realistic. It's perfectly normal to take 1-2 weeks to come back to you with an answer.

Answer 2

Hi there,

Even if you haven’t heard back after 2 weeks, you would still be within a normal feedback window.

I know it is hard to wait when all you want to know is whether you passed, but unfortunately you will have to exercise patience and wait for the official word.

However, don’t stop your other recruiting efforts in the meantime.

Fingers crossed

Answer 3

Hi there,

It could still take a bit to hear back or you might hear about it today. Hard to tell at the moment BUT the important thing is that none of this is an indication of strong/poor performance or offer/rejection.

Fingers crossed!
