I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AlphaSights (London, England) in Apr 2016
Interview
I sent my application (mainly my CV, no cover letter).
I have received an answer after 48 hours, saying they were interested in my profile and asking me to complete a motivational letter and a video interview
Motivational Letter Questions:
- Explain an ambitious goal that you set for yourself and how you achieved it?
- Situation where you experienced a real risk of failure. How did you deal with it?
- Career Plan? What skills do you need to learn to get there?

Question 1
Interview Questions
- What Alphasights do in your own words
- Why Alphasights?
- Tell us a time you had to sell an idea
- What do you expect to learn and what will you add to the position?
Interview process was ok, several stages and language test as it was a particular language speaking role, only downside really was very little feedback given at the end when not successful. When I asked for a feedback call as to why I wasn’t successful they didn’t answer my question and it was a 2 mins call saying that I was just unsuccessful.
