I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at AlphaSights (Los Angeles, CA) in Mar 2016
Interview
First round of the interview is more like sending timed videos to their website. It's similar to what everyone else said here - you click on the url they send you, and after a few rounds of trials to test the equipment you have 4 consecutive questions lined up, either timed 30 seconds or 60 seconds. Afterwards the videos are immediately uploaded and sent to their team for review. I'm looking forward to hearing back!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How did you spend your first pay check? What skills do you think the internship will help you develop? In your words, what does alphasights do? How will your friends describe you?
People have already mentioned these questions, so do prepare them in advance! I got lazy and was thrown off by two of them because I thought it was unlike that they'd ask (whoops).
A recruiter reached out after my application on Handshake. The first round interview was behavioral - asking questions about myself, my background, why I wanted to be on Client Services as opposed to consulting. Also asked on my understanding of the role
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.
