SHL Numerical test OLD

2011shlnumericaltest Bain numericaltest shl SHL test

Hi all,

I'd be very grateful if someone could help with this! I have to do a Bain online numerical test and looking at the practice test questions, it seems like the test from 2011 SHL, one of their really old versions. Back in the day, the SHL website (before being acquired by CEB) had a test bank of questions that you could practise which were almost the same as the actual test questions but I can't seem to find it anymore. Has anybody come across this recently? Anywhere I can find / prep for these tests?? Thanks a tonne!!

Bain case: Asian lubricants producer

Bain & Company
Solved 123.4k times
Bain case: Asian lubricants producer LubricantsCo, a very successful Asian premium producer of lubricants in their native region, would like to further increase their revenue and profit. The product range ranges from lubricants in the automotive sector (e.g. motor and gear oil) to industrial applications (e.g. fats, heavy-duty oils). According to preliminary examinations, further growth potentials in the Asian core market are rather limited. Thus LubricantsCo would like to investigate options to internationalize in the passenger car business – also outside the premium segment which is given priority. Therefore your consulting firm was instructed to elaborate a market entry strategy for the European market.
