Following initial application, the first round was an online video interview. This consisted of four questions, 30 seconds to prepare for each, and 60 seconds to answer. Questions were fairly standard - what do you know about AlphaSights, what makes a good professional services company, what skills are needed for this job, etc.
Second round was an interview with a member of the HR team - fairly basic motivational questions.

What would your former boss say were your main strengths and weaknesses
I applied for the Graduate Analyst position at London. The process lasted for around 1 month from contacted by hr to interview. I went through HR screening and user interview. The interview process was okay.
I applied online. I interviewed at AlphaSights (Londres, Inglaterra) in Dec 2025
Interview
The interview was conducted online and lasted around 20 minutes. It was a one-to-one video interview with a hiring manager. The questions were mainly focused on my background, previous experience, and motivation for applying to the Graduate Analyst position. They also asked about my expected salary and availability. The atmosphere was professional but friendly, and the interview followed a structured format.
Good interview, asking primarily about characteristics and personal experiences. Very self-focused, with a lot of emphasis on personality rather than technical ability. Overall interviewers in both screening and first-round interviews were nice people and polite.
