Bain & Company
Associate Consultant
Job Description:
Bain & Company is a global business consulting firm with offices in all major cities. We help
management make the big decisions: on strategy, operations, mergers & acquisitions,
technology and organization. Bain was founded in 1973 on the principle that consultants must
measure their success in terms of their clients' financial results. Companies that outperform the
market like to work with us; we are as passionate about their results as they are. Bain associate
consultants (ACs) are the heart and soul of our organization. At Bain, you will be our frontline in
developing powerful insights as well as driving results for our clients. We invest heavily in our
ACs. That investment pays off, not only for Bain. A large number of our ACs become business
leaders inside of our firm and across industries. ACs are generalists who work with case teams
and are exposed to a wide variety of industries and capabilities. In each case, ACs find the right
information, create and interpret analyses, and present their findings to case teams and clients.
Their work becomes the basis of the team's strategic recommendations. As ACs become
stronger contributors to their teams, they gain more client contact and broader strategic
development responsibilities. More than just "analysts" who analyse and report data, ACs are
core to how Bain generates results for clients.
Responsibility and learning:

As a Bain AC, you get the chance to make an impact right away. You're the one who finds the
critical information, develops high-quality analysis and assesses the most pressing issues our
clients face. You also share your insights and recommendations with your team and the client.
In short, we expect and need you to make a difference. Throughout your time as an AC, you'll
learn, be stretched, and grow at an incredible pace. In addition to hands-on experience during
client engagements, regular, worldwide, formal training programs will teach you the broad skill
set you need to succeed as a business leader. But perhaps the most profound learning
experiences come simply from interacting with your colleagues. Bain people represent the best
and the brightest of the consulting industry. Working closely alongside your team and benefiting
from informal mentoring, you'll quickly fill any gaps in your industry knowledge. You, in turn, will
be surprised at how fast you start mentoring others.
Global Training Programs:

Training is an integral part of your learning at Bain. As an AC, you will be a part of the Associate
Consultant Training (ACT) program which is organized at Virginia/Boston, USA every year. ACT
is perhaps the best experience for a new recruit – great learning, a window to share
experiences and meet fellow ACs from around the world.
Location: Mumbai

Exit Options:
Since consult gives hands-on experience in different sectors people choose to shift to one of
these that they have liked working in. A lot of them have moved to VC companies. MBA is
another option in tier 1 institutes. Though consult does not guarantee admission it does
increase your chances due to the experiences gained. Sometimes even clients extend offers to
consultants. Opportunities in Private Equity and Startups also exist.

portions of the company and to the broad disciplines of business, marketing, product
development, brand, and engineering.
APMs are given nearly irresponsible levels of responsibility at Flipkart with the intent of
providing a fresh look at how things should be done while asking for great progress.
APMs are responsible for shipping compelling software on a cross-functional team that delights
millions of users every day. The program is intended to serve as an alternative to a MBA, but
MBA graduates with little or no work experience are encouraged to apply.
These young leaders are expected to move up in the ranks and push Flipkart to unimagined
heights.
What this job entails:

Work with talented engineers, designers, product marketers, business executives and customers

21
● Pursuing a degree in BTech/BE, MTech/ME or MSc. Integrated in any engineering or science
disciplines. No GPA cut-offs.
● Structured thinking and curious about solving some of the most challenging problems

Why you SHOULD take this role !

Join a top-10 privately valued company (worldwide) in an elite program to help 1B+ users in one
of the world’s largest and most dynamic economies.
Become an expert builder and strategist for the mobile-only world: By 2020, there will be 600M
Indians < 24 years old who will likely have a smartphone.
Be responsible for core projects that propel Flipkart to new heights in Commerce, Payments,
Fulfilment and many other adventures we pursue
Work alongside a world class product team composed of PMs and Engineers from Google, Ebay,

on Campus
Selection process:
CGPA cut-off: None
Shortlisting process: APM Case Submission: A slide deck.
Test: No
GD: No
22
Interview: Nearly all rounds began with ice breakers and HR or Resume based questions.
Questions like ‘Why APM’, ‘Are you looking for other roles’, Internships and Projects were
discussed.
Interview Round 1:
● This was a Problem solving round – mainly about Finding the Root cause. Company
requires a Step by step Case Analysis presented as descriptively as possible
● Students need to give a scope to the problem and can ask for hints or more details on
the problem. The case need not be solved ultimately, but only a partial solution and the
metrics might be expected.
Interview Round 2:
● This had a strategy based problem involving guesstimates, market study, etc.
Interview Round 3:
● Product thinking Round where you need to demonstrate that you can focus on different
aspects of the product. How it actually works to how it interacts with the user and other
difficulties in that product being effective.
Interview Round 4:
● Tech understanding round where Tech understanding was checked followed by guessing
how a system you didn’t already know would work.
● Again, user – flow analysis can come in handy, apart from knowledge on different
systems for many broad areas.
Suggestions for interview: Some rounds might feel too fast paced, answering questions with
a strategic approach when the case is not in a textbook framework needs to be kept in mind.
Pick up hints and concede when your answers are corrected, etc.

Shortlisting process: Resume Shortlisting
Criteria for shortlisting: Probably Projects and Interview performances.
Test:
Yes, for 90 minutes. There were 3 medium level questions on Hackerrank. One of those
required a segment tree to clear all test cases. The complete solutions and a partial solution to
the third were sufficient to be eligible for the interviews.
GD: None
Interview:
2 Interview rounds + 1 HR. One can expect questions on Logistics regression derivation,
entropy, DL Fundaes, Random Forests, Boosting basics and regularization.
● Technical round 1: Questions based on applications of standard data structures and

algorithms like maps, heaps. ML Math
● Technical round 2: Questions (harder than first round) on trees, and other data
structures. Students can expect to be asked to write pseudo code for a question. Also
prepare for case study with ML pipeline.
● HR Round: A long series of questions were asked and were recorded by the interviewer.
Prepare for any questions about your personality, strategy, and possibly career goals.
26
Checkout Data science interview study guide. Practice coding mostly on InterviewBit, some
interview questions from GeeksForGeeks, along with attempting several company coding tests.
For HR: Just think about what to answer to all the standard HR questions, and you'll be fine.
Suggestions: Just be strong with math that’s all. Company did not prefer any courses as such.
When they ask to write a code for the problem, write the complete thing. Don’t just give the
pseudo-code. Otherwise they'll just keep pointing out the ``bugs’’. Or ask them beforehand what
type of code they are expecting. Try practicing explaining code, and also explaining solution
approaches; i.e., get a grasp of the technical terms used in describing various data structures.

clients. When you join McKinsey as a Business Analyst (BA), you are joining a firm that will
challenge you and invest in your professional development. In this role you will work on the best
teams to help the best organizations in the world – in private, public, and social sectors – solve
their most difficult problems. You will also work with many experts, from data scientists and
researchers to software and app designers.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
You’ll work in teams of typically 3 – 5 consultants, playing an active role in all aspects of the
client engagement. This includes gathering and analyzing information, formulating and testing
hypotheses, and developing and communicating recommendations. You’ll also have the
opportunity to present results to client management and implement recommendations in
collaboration with client team members. You’ll gain new skills and build on the strengths you
bring to the firm. Business Analysts receive exceptional training as well as frequent coaching
and mentoring from colleagues on their teams. This support includes a Partner from your local
office or practice assigned to you to help guide your career as well as several weeks of formal
training in your first two years as a Business Analyst. Additionally, you’ll receive guidance and
support from your local office in the selection of client projects, helping you to develop your skills
and build your network. We view the Business Analyst position as the start of a rewarding,
challenging, and highly flexible career with McKinsey. During your first few years with the firm,
you will serve as a BA on multiple client engagements and work with a number of colleagues
and clients in a range of industry and functional areas. We encourage you to explore different
content areas or geographies through a year-long rotation with one of our practices (e.g.,
corporate finance, social sector, healthcare, operations) or global offices; many do this after two
years as a generalist BA. For all BA's, you will likely intersect with many elements of our firm's
work including Digital McKinsey, Implementation, and New Ventures - either by collaborating on
teams or working with colleagues from these groups.

sample from n1 else from n2. Is the resulting distribution a normal distribution, what is
the mean? (Intuitive answer should also be fine)
Second Round:
2 Puzzles to solve. Some questions asked are :
1. What is a stochastic process? Questions about libraries mentioned in Resume.
2. Will errors in a machine learning system be correlated, if so what happens?
3. Can you find nth Fibonacci number without using recursion? (Keep track of last two
numbers)
Third Round:
1. You roll a dice and take whatever you get on it (5 RS if 5 turns up) else you can take roll
once more and get that money. Find the expectation if the person is brilliant (Ans :4)
47
2. Write DFS (where do you use DFS) What is Dijkstra’s algorithm?
Fourth Round:
1. Questions mainly based on ML.
2. Explain Linear Regression and Logistic Regression (not to rely on Andrew NG- he
explains from a neural network perspective).
3. Questions on Markov Chain.
4. Many Questions from Statistics and the solution methods used for Internships.
HR:
1. Questions based on the Profile and the Company were asked.
2. Discussions on the Internship done.
3. Questions about having no past in finance were asked. (Tell them that your job is to have
mathematical knowledge to help the firm in financial situations. So you have all the skills
needed for the job except basic understanding of finance, and you are ready to put
efforts in learning that job)
1. Coding Practise: Geeksforgeeks, leetcode, hackerrank, hackerearth, codechef, spoj, cp

algorithms. Read theory before jumping onto practice.
2. Courses from Coursera:
a. Deep learning specialization (by Andrew NG)
b. Applied data science with python specialization(University of Michigan)
c. Data structures and algorithms specialization (UC San Diego and HSE)
3. Above three are good for profiles which look for data science candidates.
4. Courses in Institute: Probability, Statistics, Linear algebra, Applied Time Series.
5. For finance-based questions, the book ‘Options, futures and other derivatives’ is
sufficient.
6. For probability: 50 challenging problems in probability, 40 challenging problems in
probability, and Heard on the street are sufficient.
7. Other book suggestions: Probability in Civil Engineering , Analytical Techniques in
Transportation Engineering
Suggestions:
● Focus on coding, puzzles, probabilities, finance and revise the courses mentioned in the
resume.
● Projects involving any of the above mentioned subjects/fields catch interviewers’
attention.
● Don’t be a twerp and say you know this and it’s easy. Even if you know, walk them
through it and try to explain the logic, though it is trivial.
● CFA and NCFM certifications help in Fintech companies but they aren’t a requirement.
48
● If you can learn substantially from online courses, it will help you get placed but
half-cooked knowledge gives a very negative impact.
● Start preparing for interviews at least from 30 days before, and have mock interviews
with friends.

Selection Process:
CGPA cut-off: None
Test:
It was a 1 hour aptitude test which consisted of 30 questions. The test consisted mostly of data
interpretation similar to previous CAT papers.
Slide Deck: After screening through the tests, we were also asked to prepare a slide deck within
1 week. We were given two options and had to choose one.
GD: No
Interview:
There were 3 interview rounds, 2 technical and 1 HR round.
In the case study, we were asked for ways to bring more customers to the OLA platform in the
case study round.
● Round 1&2: They mostly discussed our case studies and then asked some puzzles
similar to those on ‘Heard on the Street’.Then, they also asked guesstimate questions
which most people didn’t prepare last time.
● Round 3: This round was probably not very important since they had already shortlisted
only two people from the previous rounds. Questions were general HR questions which
are asked in every interview.
62
Suggestions:
● This profile is relatively new so one must have the knowledge of what the profile is all
about.
● Solve data interpretation questions from previous CAT papers or the test. Last time
questions could be solved from the room but this may not be the case next year. The
questions were not hard but time-consuming.
● Some experience of approaching case study problems is required. So you will have to
learn that.
● For interview, prepare guesstimates and Heard on the street is a must.

Selection process:
CGPA cut-off: None
Test: Online tests were conducted
● There was 1 hard coding question related to XOR function.

● Rest of the questions were easy MCQs based on statistics and Machine Learning.
GD: No
Interview: There were 4 interview rounds in total: 3 technical rounds and 1 HR round.
● Round 1 & 2(Technical) : These rounds had questions from puzzles, Machine learning
topics and Big Data problems. Some questions:
○ Pick any ML algorithm and explain its assumptions. What metric would be used
to judge accuracy if I have both categorical and numeric data.
○ Some questions based on decision trees.
● Round 3: Technical
○ Explain your resume projects.
○ Explain any ML/DL paper that you have read recently.
● HR Round: For this round, knowing about the company and the type of work they do
would help a lot. This round was not very significant. I was asked about future plans and
my opinion about working in Bangalore.
Suggestions:
I wasn’t getting many questions right in the interview. When I asked the interviewer, he said that
they were looking for people willing to listen and learn. I guess, be humble and keep an open
mind and try to work out an answer with the help of the interviewer id you don’t know the
answer.
Coding is very important. I didn’t get many shortlists due to lack of coding expertise. Start
coding on platforms like InterviewBit.
Any courses/projects/internships you do will also help you in your placements, so don't worry
too much.

211
Interview:The were 2 two technical rounds and 1 HR round:
● In the first round, the questions were mostly focused on my Resume. I was asked to
explain each and every point in detail. Then, I was asked about my knowledge in
programming languages and Operating systems. I was also asked a few coding jargon
(definitions of certain coding terms) and also got questions on how to apply in practical
life what you have learned.
● In the second round, the questions were focused on programming, that too in depth.

questions from "64 HR questions" and also about the company.
GeeksForGeeks for DSA(go topicwise with emphasis on DP questions)

Suggestions:
Common Machine learning courses can be useful for fundamentals but it's better to take up
some courses related to big data management ( Hadoop etc.).
NPTEL courses on OOP and Data structures and algorithms are very useful for software
development roles (especially for tests).
Try to remain calm for your interviews and also know about what the company does and what
profile they are looking for, so that you emphasize those points when they ask "tell me about
yourself". And also don't lie in your resume and prepare a basic HR questions answer
beforehand and practice them with your friends so that you always have some good points to
provide and you will feel much calmer while giving answers to the interviewer.
Don't talk about points that are not relevant to the profile they are looking for. "Give them what
they are looking for" should be what should be in your mind while giving your answers for the
interview questions.
