I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in Apr 2015
Interview
Interview was 3 rounds - recorded video, hangout session, on-site interview. The first was difficult and part of a screening process. You are given 5 seconds to read a question and 30-60 seconds to answer. The second is on a Google Hangout and much more like a conversation. The third is like a typical on site interview.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at AlphaSights (Hong Kong) in Apr 2015
Interview
As described here many times already, after the online application one receives an invitation to their video interview. The time is about 5 seconds to read each question. The questions did not feel like they are related to each other. So be prepared to switch from various topics very quickly. The time to answer each question is about 35 seconds.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
All interview have been posted here already. Take a look and note them all down, since it is rather random what questions you get to answer.
The first round interview includes a virtual interview and a small online assessment. The interview took me no more than 20 minutes. They asked some simple behavioral questions, with each one allowing 30 to 60 seconds for answering it. The online assessment included couple games, some math, synonym discrimination, etc. it took me about 15 minutes.
