I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bain & Company (Brussels) in Apr 2023
Interview
I was invited for an interview after participating in the Results Challenge. The interview consisted of two cases with junior consultants. The difficulty of the cases was average. There is also a casual behavioral interview with someone from HR.

Question 1
Behavioral: what is the most negative feedback you have ever received and how did you react? Cases: profitability
It was fine. The partner round interviews were less structured and much more difficult. Majority of my interviewers were really nice which made the process better than what I had anticipated.
2 rounds of interviews, each round consisting of 3 interviews with cases. In the first round 2 case interviews and 1 with HR. In the 2nd round you have 3 interviews with more senior profiles like managers and partners.
Interviewers were really nice, but the process was difficult. Standard level cases and they expected you to take them through multiple business problems. If you practice casing frequently with multiple partners, you should be fine.
