I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AlphaSights (New York, NY) in June 2017
Interview
You begin with a video interview shortly after submitting your application. The video interview prompts you with questions and you have 30 seconds before your response time begins. It was helpful to look at all glassdoor reviews that included interview questions so I had a vague idea of what they were going to ask -- the questions were a combination of all the different variations I had seen online so it threw me off, admittedly. The interview took about 10-15 minutes to record. I heard back within 10 days.
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.
