Demo case file · Case interview
Bain & Company
Associate Consultant
This is a demo case file: a realistic example written from commonly known interview formats, not a real candidate's interview experience.
Questions asked
- A private equity firm is considering buying a chain of gyms. What should they look at before deciding?
- Here's a chart of membership cancellations by how long each gym has been open. What does it tell you?
- Each gym has $1.2M in fixed costs a year and memberships cost $50 a month. Ignoring variable costs, how many members does a gym need to break even?
What to expect
A due-diligence style case: market, competition, the company itself, and exit potential. The math was simple but they watched for clean units (monthly versus yearly). About ten minutes at the start were fit questions about teamwork.
