We offer a variety of exploratory programs designed to help potential candidates learn more about management consulting, get to know Bain, and build connections with our local offices and affinity groups – all while navigating their early career journeys. 

We welcome second-year (sophomore) undergraduate students attending a four-year university in the United States or Canada to join us for this interactive, virtual series. As a participant in Consulting Kickstart, you’ll gain exposure to business leaders and the exciting world of consulting. You will also have the chance to learn more about Bain’s recruiting process from recruiters and from consultants who have recently gone through the recruiting process.

How to apply to Consulting Kickstart

Applications for our 2026 program are now closed. Check back later next year for more information on our 2027 Consulting Kickstart program.
