I applied for the Graduate Analyst position at London. The process lasted for around 1 month from contacted by hr to interview. I went through HR screening and user interview. The interview process was okay.
I interviewed at AlphaSights (Hong Kong) in May 2014
Interview
Online application, very simple and straightforward, just tell your real passion to join the young but fast-growing company. Got replied in a week and invited to take a cam interview. The interview lasted for 5 minutes, 4 questions, very basic, like what's the business? Why this company? Why you? and show your business awareness.

Question 1
It's difficult to talk to a cam, with only 1 minute to answer. So practice more and take it easy.
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.
