I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in June 2016
Interview
1. Sent in a cover letter and resume
2. Recruiter reached out and sent me a video interview to complete. Make sure to read all of the questions on this site because they're the same ones they asked. Also practice in front of a mirror before
3. Video interview with HR. It was behavioral questions based on your resume. They definitely try to make you a little uncomfortable with their questions
4. Case study interview. This was hard & I botched it. No way to prepare really other than getting good at searching on LinkedIn
Smooth process, first phone calls then zoom interview everyone was very nice and explained 1 person and then 2 people next round was very easy and comfortable would reccomend applying and seeing how you feel

Question 1
What was the most challenging thing you had to do?
30min interview fairly relaxed. Mainly behavioural questions and talking about yourself. 1 question at the end about what you understand the company to do. The interviewer was friendly and helpful. It is optional whether to have your camera on or not.
