I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in Oct 2023
Interview
Phone call with Recruiter. Recruiter was 10 minutes late, which made me anxious. The recruiter almost seemed snarky, continuing to ask questions that were slightly inappropriate and slightly disapproving of my previous experiences. For example, I mentioned a volunteering experience and the recruiter completely disregarded it.
I applied online. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in May 2026
Interview
Very straight forward and easy to continue throughout. I had three interviews and every time I had someone else that had a different point of view and wanted to learn something new about me.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How did my leadership in college make me a better person in the classroom?
I completed an initial HireVue, a behavioral screening Zoom call, a secondary Zoom call that covered a case study, and finally was invited for an in-person interview at their New York City office.
Virtual interview. Case study role playing speaking to a potential client in the role. Was about 45 minutes to an hour long. Asked questions on why you would be a good fit.
