Applied through my college posting. Responded to 3 questions about myself. Then asked to set up a 10 minute online interview. Very different from other interviews...Process was very quick. Found out I was not accepted to move onto the next stage. I recommend doing a lot more preparation and practice in front of your camera.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at AlphaSights in Mar 2015
Interview
Was contacted via LinkedIn by a recruiter. First had a phone call screening. Next was invited to do a video assessment interview. It was very different than other video assessments as the time was much shorter to review the question being asked (5 seconds) and were given 30 seconds to answer the various questions, which was the right amount of time. After, I received an email saying I did not have enough experience for the position.

Question 1
Talk about a time you had to break the rules to complete a task.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at AlphaSights
Interview
Video assessment was very impersonal and too short - it gave me 30 seconds or 1 minute to answer questions. I felt awkward talking to the computer and didn't know how to make eye-contact. Be concise and keep it short! Also, make sure you are in a quiet environment and your microphone works fine.
