I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in Aug 2022
Interview
3 rounds, 1 hour each. Phone call with HR, Zoom with a manager, Zoom with VP.
HR call is straightforward, you'll talk about your background and what you know about the company and their BREAD process.
The Zoom call with a manager will be mostly centered around a case study. They will give you a client's needs and ask you to find someone for your client to talk to. Use Linkedin and find a C-suit person from a related industry to the question. Then you will walk through who you found and why you picked them. Finally, the interviewer will give you some "what if" type questions.
The call with a VP is more or less the HR call with more teeth. They will want you to be very clear on what you do in the day-to-day. Why you would be a good fit for this company. And what your 5-year plan is.
They seem to be hard set on making it very clear in no way does this job resemble a consulting job. It is a sales job. It is repetitive and not dynamic. If you want this job make it clear to them that you know it is a sales job with a lot of time spent on Linkedin messaging people who don't want to hear from you.
Initial call with a recruiter to gain an insight into the role. This was followed by two subsequent calls with more senior members of staff which entailed more technical questions. A language test also had to be carried out.

Question 1
Role a play a scenario based on the case study you're given.
Stay away. Realized how much of a scam it is as I went through- ended on my own accord after final round. There will be no exit opportunities with this company whatsoever. You will be stuck. Know some friends who have worked here and regret every second of it.
