I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in Dec 2022
Interview
Three interviews: 1) 20-minute phone call. 2) 1 hour zoom with half behavior questions and half case study. 3) 1 hour zoom with all behavior questions. You get exposed to higher level employees for every round. The whole interview process was very quick in my experience. I did all of the interviews in less than a week and received an offer the day of the third interview. I got the vibe that they were trying to hire as many interns as possible, thus the quick turnaround.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Any behavior/experience questions you can think of. You have to be very familiar with their work process, which they outline with the acronym 'BREAD'.
Three rounds - first round general competency, second round case study and phone call role play, third round an hour long competency and experience interview with a VP. Third round was a longer and more difficult version of first round. Second round involved one case study with access before, and the second case study was done on the spot.

Question 1
Why client service rather than consulting, and what is the difference
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at AlphaSights
Interview
Coffee chat with Alphasights recruiter
One to one interview with recruiter - regular STAR questions, ended up asking about my proficiency in a third language I spoke even though that wasn't what I was recruited for
Interview with VP(?)
3-4 stages, last stage was really unexpected a far more intense behavioural and background interview, wasn't really given any materials from the company. However HR was super helpful whenever I reached out.
