I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY)
Interview
AlphaSights posted an opening for a senior position on university career center whereupon I contacted the listed HR contact and asked if they were looking to hire an entry level positions. She responded with an affirmative and from there, I went on the website and submitted my resume. A day or so later, they requested a video interview. After submitting that, (again, a day or so later), they requested a Skype interviewed. Very shortly afterwards, they requested an onsite interview that consisted of three rounds. For the first round, I was required to prepare a case beforehand and then asked to do another two cases on the spot. The second and third round interviews were behavioral/fit. Overall, everyone was professional, friendly, and willing to answer any and all questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. Taking AlphaSights out of the equation, what are three ideal offers you would have now?
2. If you could go back in time and reverse three key, life decisions, what would they be?
3. What are you most looking forward to about working here? What are some of your concerns?
I went through 2 rounds of interviews before deciding myself not to move on after the second. The first one was a standard behavioral one, recorded before a screen (might've changed due to the pandemic). The second one consisted of two parts: the first a role play, where I was assigned a case and asked to look for industry experts to answer a question for a made-up client, the second a standard behavioral interview.
