I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at AllianceBernstein (New York, NY) in Aug 2025
Interview
The interview process was incredibly communicative and swift. If they want you, they let you know fast and you can tell by their demeanor. Make sure you research the firm, their clients, and why you want to join the industry.
