      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at AlphaSights (London, England) in Jan 2016

      Interview

      I applied online, the process was rather quick. It took them several days to reply to my initial online application. The first stage was a video interview which felt rather unnatural, but the questions were quite standard and nothing usual. At one point I was asked about the book I'm currently reading. What threw me off was the format of the interview, as I'm more used to phone interviews where I rely on the dialogue format, but I guess that's something that I need to get used to. No technical issues, still waiting for a reply.

      Question 1

      From the three questions that stuck into my mind was the one about the book I am reading no / have read most recently

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in Feb 2023

      Interview

      Was a 10 minute initial phone interview at first, asked specific questions based on the content they sent beforehand. Was kinda annoying because some of the questions were clearly gotcha questions in case you didn't read through all the stuff they sent before.

      Analyst/Associate Interview

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in Sept 2018

      Interview

      Video Assessment followed by a phone interview (all behavioral - asked about the day to day of an associate), followed by an onsite interview that lasted about 2 hours. The interview was conducted by sets of 2 people, the first part was a case in which you needed to find 2 experts for each prompt as well as break down the value chain. This was difficult since that is barely enough time to even learn the basics of the value chains since the industries were very specific. There was also a role-playing component where you had to pretend to make a phone call. After that, it was all behavioral, but it was tricky since my one of my interviewers was asking rapid-fire questions so it didn't seem like a conversation. Also, he cut me off mid-sentence a few times which rubbed me the wrong way. Another annoying part was they only gave me a week to book a hotel room before my interview and only reimburse up to $200. This is not great considering hotels in NYC cost upwards of that amount not taking into account travel. Overall, I met a lot of nice people, the recruiter was really helpful and responsive. It's a really interesting company but they need to adjust some aspects of their interview process.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Why AlphaSights? What is your dream company (not including AlphaSights)? A bunch of behavioral questions. Case: Find two specific people for each prompt to address these clients issues. You need names, companies, and titles. Also, make sure you understand the value chain (all in 15 minutes).
