What do you want to learn in this role?
Why Alphasights?
What do AlphaSights do? (60s)
What is the thing you've been striving to improve?
Tell me about a time you had to sell someone on an idea.
Easy scheduling, recruiter helped with questions I had. Able to freely schedule my interviews. There was a few interviews, some short some long. Didn’t take too long to receive offer.
3 Rounds, mainly behavioral, not too hard if you prepare well and study and do calls with recruiters. Know what the BREAD process is and what AS does. Second round interview is hardest so practice before hand. Final round just a chat.
The video interview is simple. But the second interview has a prep guide,, but it doesn't include the information you need to know. You walk through a supply chain, but the guide doesn't tell you to prepare for that, despite being told the guide is all you need to prepare.
