I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in Mar 2025
Interview
Nice, pretty average. She was late to get on the call which felt odd. Wasn't super friendly but not rude. (Kind of made me feel like a child). Asked normal questions.

Question 1
What does AlphaSights do? (Strange considering you would think they'd explain this first)
Initial call with a recruiter to gain an insight into the role. This was followed by two subsequent calls with more senior members of staff which entailed more technical questions. A language test also had to be carried out.

Question 1
Describe a situation in which you had to work under pressure.
The interview process was three rounds. Initial screening, one on one interview, I didn't make it past the second round, but there was a final interview with team lead afterward.

Question 1
Role a play a scenario based on the case study you're given.
Stay away. Realized how much of a scam it is as I went through- ended on my own accord after final round. There will be no exit opportunities with this company whatsoever. You will be stuck. Know some friends who have worked here and regret every second of it.
