2022 Associate Consultant - Fall Application Deadline

We’re excited to meet you – we have two deadlines for our full-time applications: July 15th and September 9th. We encourage you to apply in either round, based on your readiness to start the process.

Imagine a role that tests and develops your academic and personal capabilities every day of the week, by setting you the most interesting challenges and giving you the warmest, brightest, and most supportive peer group to face them with. A role where you’ll make an impact from day one and be set on a global career path that will maximize your future career potential.

So if you’re an ambitious undergraduate who yearns to work with the brightest, most curious minds then we’d love you to join our team in the prestigious role of Bain Associate Consultant. We have a long tradition of excellence in helping the world’s top organizations solve their toughest challenge and our Associate Consultants form the backbone of this success. After multiple years of 15% growth, we are currently hiring for our largest intake ever.

Client confidentially means we cannot tempt you with our client’s names, but suffice to say, whether you’re interested in consumer electronics, finance, transportation, healthcare, energy, or non-profits, the chances are good that you know our work.

As a Bain Associate Consultant, your analytical, interpersonal, creative thinking, business management, and leadership skills will be called upon from day one. You will begin as a generalist and be in the thick of the action as you work side-by-side with some of the best in the business.

•      Providing clients with powerful facts and analyses that outline solutions and drive change

•      Work as members of case teams in roles that vary according to the team’s objective

•      Be responsible for identifying information sources, gathering and interpreting data, and presenting their findings to case team members

•      Interviewing the client’s customers, competitors, suppliers and employers; this work becomes the basis of the case team’s strategic recommendation

The learning curve is steep, but from over 40 years of experience, we know that you will be able to handle it. And the rewards – global travel, influential connections, world-class training, personal satisfaction, unparalleled career-development and, yes, financial – are second to none.

•      Bachelor’s degree from a renowned educational institution
