I applied for this position online and got the interview invitation within 24 hours. The entire process took about a month. I went through the first-round video assessment, the second-round HR interview, and the third-round case interview. There are four questions in the video assessment and the questions were pretty basic. What everybody else posted are literally what they asked. The second round was very conversational and it went well. I wish to elaborate a bit on the third-round interview. Prior to the interview, their HR told me that I am supposed to receive the case several minutes before the interview starts. While on the day of the interview, the HR team didn't coordinate well with this manager interviewer and I got nothing even until the interview started. In the case interview, you are given three scenarios with each describes a client from a corporate/financial institution making a service request. You are supposed to pick two scenarios and then find two "experts" for each one you selected within 15 minutes. At the end of the case interview, the manager interviewer will conduct a "role play" with you, with the interviewer being one of the experts you searched and you being an Alphasights associate reaching out to this expert through a phone call. When we were mocking this phone call with expert, the interviewer kept on asking me questions as, "what does Alphasights do", "why would I spend time with you instead of speaking with the client directly" so on and so forth. I was kind of frustrated by this because before applying for this position, I saw employee reviewing this company as a "glorified call center" and this mock phone call just confirmed that. It demonstrated the repetitive and frustrating nature of this job as probably all I have to do is searching people online, cold calling them and being questioned again and again on what Alphasights actually does. Alphasights tried to set up their case as a consulting firm case interview, while the company per se is not comparable to a consulting firm. The case interview took an hour. Afterward, their HR manager interviewed me for another hour. Their HR manager just asked me a bunch of basic questions. Nothing special. To sum up, the point I want to make is that their third-round case interview gave me some insights on their business and honestly, it's not as interesting as I assumed it would be. I still rated it a positive experience despite the logistic issue I encountered because it let me figure out that this company didn't fit me. Farewell Alphasights and be well.

Easy scheduling, recruiter helped with questions I had. Able to freely schedule my interviews. There was a few interviews, some short some long. Didn’t take too long to receive offer.
