AlphaSights reviews

Fast-paced role with high level of responsibility, constant opportunity for growth and great company culture

AlphaSights is an excellent place to start a career. In my first year and a half out of college I developed a strong commercial skill-set, gained professional experience through exposure to leading corporate/investor clients, and was given enough individual responsibility to make a measurable impact on the growing business. While challenging at times, my experience led me to a great role at a F100 firm that has been my top choice since college. Specific pros include: -Education/skill development: You will have considerable exposure in the following areas: account management/development/growth, client relations, inside sales, negotiation experience, correspondence with executives, cold outreach, inside sales, meeting/exceeding stretch targets, revenue generation, etc.., as well as anecdotes to back it all up once interviewing for your next step. While these phrases might just seem like buzzwords to someone in college looking for a job, they are fundamental skills for front office jobs. -Environment: You are surrounded by young, likeminded, driven peers in the heart of New York City. The people there want to have a good time just as much as you do, and you'll be friends first, colleagues second with most everyone in the office. -Responsibility and Exposure: Out of my friends in the coveted banking, consulting, and programming jobs in NYC, it was clear that I had the most immediate responsibility in my role from the get-go. You will have a lot of responsibility and the small company size allows you to be visible to leadership and take on non-core initiatives.
