I applied through university. I interviewed at AllianceBernstein (Princeton, NJ) in Oct 2017
Interview
On campus interview via school portal application. Was a first round general interview with H R person. Very general. She wanted to talk about the firm but knew less about the actual role. Felt like she was exhausted by the time she interviewed me
I applied online. I interviewed at AllianceBernstein (New York, NY)
Interview
After 2 rounds of informal interviews I had a case study in which I was tasked to recommend 2 investments from a list of companies provided to me. Was allowed 3 hours of silent work in their office to read/research companies. This was followed by a discussion with Senior PMs.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at AllianceBernstein
Interview
The first step was a phone interview, going through my background and a general overview of the role. There weren't any "typical" interview questions, like "what's your biggest weakness" etc. It was very natural and just focused on whether I would be a good fit for the role based upon my background and career goals going forward.
