Why Bain?
Bain was the obvious choice for me- an incredible, top firm with a
unique culture, a passion for results and a strong emphasis on
professional development. Everyone here is personally interested in
helping you succeed, and that was very apparent right from the
start.
My passion at Bain and outside of the
office
At Bain, I want to learn as much as I can. In one year, I've worked
for a not-for-profit, a life insurance company, a telecom and now a
gold mining company!
I have many passions outside of Bain as well- traveling, singing,
reading and staying physically fit.
My favorite (recent) case
My last case was a cost and performance benchmarking study for
three telecommunications companies in three countries. My role was
to compare network architecture and performance metrics across the
three carriers. This case was particularly interesting for me given
my background in electrical engineering where I learned about
cellular networks. That's one of the great things Bain has to
offer: we serve clients in a wide variety of industries. You have
the ability to shape your career to do the things you love.
My perspective on diversity at Bain
Bain has an incredible network of strong, successful women who
invest in seeing other women excel. Formal and informal mentoring,
social women's events and women's initiatives are just some of the
ways to connect with and learn from amazing role models.
A final thought
If you're thinking about joining a management consulting firm, do
your homework: find out which firm's culture suits you best and
which one will help you succeed at the things that inspire you.
