I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at AlphaSights in Jan 2015
Interview
Went through an awkward video recorded interview process in where I had about 5 seconds to prepare for each question. They weren't particularly hard questions but I felt I wasn't given enough time to gather my thoughts and thus did not make it to the next stage. My advice would be to give succinct and clear answers and engage with the camera.

I applied online. I interviewed at AlphaSights (London, England) in Dec 2025
Interview
The interview was conducted online and lasted around 20 minutes. It was a one-to-one video interview with a hiring manager. The questions were mainly focused on my background, previous experience, and motivation for applying to the Graduate Analyst position. They also asked about my expected salary and availability. The atmosphere was professional but friendly, and the interview followed a structured format.
Good interview, asking primarily about characteristics and personal experiences. Very self-focused, with a lot of emphasis on personality rather than technical ability. Overall interviewers in both screening and first-round interviews were nice people and polite.
