If I am not invited to be part of the program, does that also mean I will not be invited to interview for a position at Bain?
We have limited spots for this program, so we are unable to invite everyone who applies. Therefore we encourage you to apply for a position regardless of the outcome of your application.

The program is a 10 month program. We will start in October 2025 through assigning you a mentor and granting you access to the Masterclass and continue with the trainings on a monthly cadence.

I have heard about the Bain True North Scholarship, is this the same as the Masterclass?
The True North Scholarship is a program currently offered by our London, Zurich, Munich, Middle East and Australian offices. It is a separate program from the Lead to Inspire Masterclass and the application process is different. Should you have applied to the True North Scholarship, you can still apply to the Masterclass as well. Please check the True North Scholarship page for more information.
