I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at AlphaSights (Tokyo) in Jun 2023
Interview
It was a 20 minutes with the head of APAC recruiting at a booth at the Tokyo Career Forum. Lots of intrapersonal questions Lots of time to ask questions back
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What are your biggest strengths? Biggest weaknesses? What are you doing to work on them? Where do you see yourself 5 years from now? Where else have you applied?
the first ai round was really easy. then the actaully first round was also Pretty easy first round. Asks you the basic questions. tell me about urself, what do you do at school etc.
I only attended the first interview. The HR manager was neither friendly nor unfriendly. It was just a normal screening interview. Only self-introduction and motivation for application were conducted in English, and the rest were conducted in Korean. The HR manager asked questions focusing on my background and history rather than understanding the job itself.
First round all behavioral. Mostly talking about previous experiences, how it applies to AlphaSights, and why AlphaSights is a fit role. Wasn't difficult, but unfortunately did don't get selected for some reason even though I thought it went very well.
