I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at AlphaSights in Mar 2022
Interview
First round is with HR - relatively easy, just asked about my background, motivations for applying, what I understand about alphasights as a company and about the role itself.
Second round is Case Study - this round was the most difficult, first part was situational questions (3 main questions) regarding what you would do as an associate in these workplace situations (remember to have client-first mentality), this part ended with a deep dive into your CV and extracurriculars. the second part was a case study, pick 2 out of 3 briefs and have to find 4 experts in a short period of time and explain why you chose those experts (remember value chains and what titles to look for), then you had to do a practice phone call with one of the experts you chose.
Last round was with VP - this round was not too difficult but speaking confidently about your motivations and drive, why you applied for the role, your background etc.
I didn't get accepted after the 3 stages, was fairly lengthy interview process (over a month) and required a lot of preparation, they provide you with sufficient material to practice and feedback calls before your final interview with which is good.

Interview
Only had the first step of the interview, I plan on withdrawing from the application process before it continues on. Was interview by Joannah busk, who is rude, passive aggressive, gives you feedback on your interview at the end (which is awesome to be fair but the way in which she does it is basically to air superiority instead of capitalizing on ways to improve). She literally said " you dont have to recite what you saw on the site"
