Joining Bain
"After I graduated in October and received my Bain offer in
November, I used the last months of the year to find a place and
move to Amsterdam. In January 2006 I started at Bain Amsterdam. For
the last two years I worked at Bain Amsterdam and now have the
opportunity to go on transfer for six months to one of the other
Bain offices around the world, start thinking about an MBA or use
one of the other opportunities Bain is offering to broaden my work
experience."
Case experience
"Since starting at Bain I have experienced many industries
including: telecom, automotive, consumer health and wellness,
computer technology and pharmaceuticals."
Flexible and enriching environment
"Working in my first year at Bain, for one of the largest consumer
goods companies in the world, at a billion dollar deal was a
tremendous experience. For me it was fantastic to work in a team
which consisted of people from the Amsterdam office and from the
New York office. Being able, with this team, to understand a
market, I had not event thought of before, showed me again how much
you can accomplish with the combined knowledge and experience
available at Bain."
Outside the office
"I spend a lot of my spare time on sports and visiting
friends. Most of all I like to travel and visit people I met abroad
or meet new and interesting people. Recently, I have traveled a lot
in Eastern Europe, which is a very interesting and dynamic part of
the world with a lot of hidden and interesting places."
