I applied online. I interviewed at AlphaSights in Feb 2019
Interview
Applied through online portal. About within a week I was given a notification mail from a person in HK office. I was asked to record answers to four questions, with each given about 15 secs to prepare and 1.5 min to respond.
I am now waiting for my second round of interview - a video conference. They provide a few links to refer to and provides several questions to prepare in advance.
Initial call with a recruiter to gain an insight into the role. This was followed by two subsequent calls with more senior members of staff which entailed more technical questions. A language test also had to be carried out.

The interview process was three rounds. Initial screening, one on one interview, I didn't make it past the second round, but there was a final interview with team lead afterward.

Question 1
Role a play a scenario based on the case study you're given.
Stay away. Realized how much of a scam it is as I went through- ended on my own accord after final round. There will be no exit opportunities with this company whatsoever. You will be stuck. Know some friends who have worked here and regret every second of it.
