I applied through college or university. I interviewed at AlphaSights in Apr 2014
Interview
I had to take a video interview, it means that you have to answer4 questions in 1minute, you have only 30 seconds preparation for each question. It is a bit strange as you see yourself speaking to a computer. My advice is to prepare the answers of the questions in advance as there are some repetitive questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
-why alphasight
-the last book you read
-talk about yourself
I would say it was a pretty standard behavioral interview. They asked questions in both Japanese and English since this was for a position in Japan. It was conducted over Zoom, if I remember correctly.
via zoom. first round was casual just some questions and explaining the company, the second one they had me prepare a case study and do research and then proceeded to tell me everything i did wrong. needless to say did not get an offer
Extensive over multiple rounds, first its get to know you style, after that they make you cold call without context. If you ask for context, none is provided. Must do industry research beforehand.
