I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in Jan 2016
Interview
I applied through the website. I heard back regarding an invitation to the video assessment after 10 days of initial application. As the previous reviews mentioned, the video assessment is a self-recording process. Since you're not interacting with an interviewer, you really have to time yourself and practice before you actually begin the assessment. There is a practice question in the beginning of the assessment where you can adjust the volume and try working the system, so I would recommend getting used to how the page works before moving on to the real thing.
Interview process was ok, several stages and language test as it was a particular language speaking role, only downside really was very little feedback given at the end when not successful. When I asked for a feedback call as to why I wasn’t successful they didn’t answer my question and it was a 2 mins call saying that I was just unsuccessful.
