Hi,
Does Bain apply Written Case Interview for the worldwide region? I am checking especially for APAC/Southeast Asia. IF you have further information about Bain recruitment in APAC/Southeast Asia, that will be great as well.
Thank you
Hi,
Yes, Bain uses a written case for its SEA offices which is similar to the test that is used in other regions. You should be able to find some samples online.

Hi there,
Bain was indeed using a written case in SEA and China before the COVID – they may have changed it now though.
In Singapore it is also common to have a test of 25 questions in 50 minutes.
A few offices also use a one-way video interview with three questions.
I helped several candidates in China and South East Asia for Bain and know 15+ real questions asked there, please feel free to PM me for more information if needed.
Best,
Francesco

The case study is the most important element of the case interview, which you'll have to nail in order to get into strategic consulting. Here you can learn the specific skills and concepts necessary to solve them.
