I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in Mar 2025
Interview
3 rounds of straightforward questions. The first round is very easy, mostly getting to know you. They care a lot in the first round that you know what AS is, and specifically look for you to state that it is NOT a consulting firm. The second round is a case study similar to projects you complete on the desk. The third round is a more in-depth behavioral, where they want to understand more about your work ethic and your background.

Question 1
First round: What is AlphaSights?
Third round: What is one thing you would not like about working here?
There is a HireVue plus three additional rounds. First round was with HR and consisted of simple behavioral questions. Second round was a take home case study plus an on the spot case study. We also had to do a roleplay scenario as if we were talking to a client. This round lasted an hour.
Multiple rounds, 1 case study/mock phone call, final with a senior which is casual and more personality based. I think they interview a lot of candidates, to my belief they offer a first round interview to many people. However, many of the interviewers are very friendly.
