I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at AlphaSights
Interview
I did the recorded video questions and got through to a first round interview. You do get a second shot to record your answers, and possible even a third but I didn't want to risk it. My questions were like ones discussed here, what does alphasights do? What are the major challenges faced by professional services firms? A personal one, and what book I am reading at the moment. Do practise answers and try see exactly what you can say in the minute talking at a good steady pace!
Got an email to complete an online video screening interview within 72 hours. Had a specific amount of time to answer questions and 30 seconds to prep. There were six questions about major, college choice, AlphaSights, ect.
I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in Jan 2014
Interview
Asked to submit a 200 word paragraph as to why I want to join the company. After a couple of days I received an invite to complete an online video interview.
