I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AlphaSights (Philadelphia, PA) in Sept 2021
Interview
The interview was a 20-30 minute interview that asked me about my background, my understanding about Alphasights (as a company), and what I'd hope to achieve there. The interviewer was extremely friendly.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1) Tell me about yourself.
2) What do you believe AlphaSights does (as a company)?
The management consulting interview process typically involves multiple rounds, starting with screening calls, followed by case studies, and behavioral interviews, focusing on problem-solving skills, analytical ability, and cultural fit. It was more on the behavioural and cultural fit as opposed to the technical aspects.
Behavioral-based interview that is quite common among other firms. Really know why you want to be a part of the firm. Gave a video to watch and asked questions regarding that as well.
There are 3 rounds of interviews, 2 behavioral, 1 "case". First two rounds are easy but last round was an hour long of only behavioral questions. Overall not too bad but just very long
