I applied online. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in Mar 2017
Interview
Only got the video interview. Didn't make it to next step. Didn't even have to submit a cover letter. Just a resume. They didn't really get to know me! The video interview only works for a certain kind of person. Not me.
A hirevue completed online followed by a behavioral interview over zoom with an HR rep. It was fairly standard behavioral questions and they ask you to describe what the company does.
Very smooth and takes place quickly after application and with a real person which is nice. The questions aim to test your understanding of the work you will be doing and the competitive landscape of the industry.
Process had three rounds: screener, case study, and final, hour long in-depth interview. The recruiter was very transparent and supportive throughout the process and let you know what to expect with each round.
