I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in Jan 2016
Interview
I applied around late November and got contacted early January. It was a self-video interview. This is rather cut throat way of interviewing people. 5 questions, 15 seconds per question to think of an answer and 30 seconds to answer. Those 30 second answers are never enough to elaborate about our own abilities, achievements, or even our personal beliefs.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What do you want (expect) to get out of this internship?
After an AI screening interview the first round of interview is with a senior recruiter that takes about 30 minutes. Many behavioral questions that feels very fast paced. Mostly focusing on your college experiences like classes you took and enjoyed or why you choose your college and major specifically.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in Nov 2025
Interview
1st round was an online recording interview. 2nd round was with a recruiter and was a behavior based interview, 3rd round was a case interview. The final round was a behavioral based interview asking some basic questions about you.
It is a online video interview and they have a questionnaire for you to fill out. For the video interview, there are 3 questions and the preparation time is 1 minute for each question.
