Tell us about your journey since joining us
I joined Bain after participating in the True North: Scholarship for Women and have worked on projects in the Energy and Natural Resources, Telecommunications and Financial Services sectors. I also enjoy participating in the office’s DE&I efforts: helping create London’s DE&I internal website and developing our 6 Step Challenge – a combination of learning materials, discussion points and calls to action to support self-education and team discussions on Race, equity and social justice. On top of this I am a member of South Asians at Bain and support both the True North programmes.
What is the best thing you’ve learnt at Bain so far?
Don’t be shy! Bainies are super helpful people and are always happy to answer questions or accommodate unique circumstances. Whether you need tech help, want to develop a specific skill or just want to move a call around an Olympics event there is no harm in asking – and the vast majority of the time the answer will be yes!
What would be your best piece of advice for someone considering applying?
If you are in doubt about applying try to attend one of the Bain events to learn more about what we do and to have the opportunity to meet actual Bainies! Once you have decided to apply make sure you leave yourself enough time to practice case studies for the interviews – don’t forget to practice aloud with other people and brush up on your maths skills!
