I applied through college or university. I interviewed at AlphaSights in Sep 2020
Interview
First Round. Automated Virtual Interview. 5 question, 1 way interview. Was allowed one chance to record responses after 45 seconds to review the questions. Moderate question difficulty, pretty standard interview questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you believe you would be a strong candidate for this role?
The management consulting interview process typically involves multiple rounds, starting with screening calls, followed by case studies, and behavioral interviews, focusing on problem-solving skills, analytical ability, and cultural fit. It was more on the behavioural and cultural fit as opposed to the technical aspects.
Behavioral-based interview that is quite common among other firms. Really know why you want to be a part of the firm. Gave a video to watch and asked questions regarding that as well.
There are 3 rounds of interviews, 2 behavioral, 1 "case". First two rounds are easy but last round was an hour long of only behavioral questions. Overall not too bad but just very long
