I applied online. I interviewed at AlphaSights (Hong Kong) in May 2026
Interview
I just got to phone interview and they ask a couple of question. It just around less than 10 minutes and very general. I feel like they have phone interview everyday and they dont actually care who they are interviewing. The good thing is they process quikly, i u dont pass, they would send the notification next week.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They will spreak English very fast to test your skill. But I feel like they do not read my CV before they call. They just have a list of question and just ask accordingly. Highly recommend preparing basic answer for common question: why u appply, what is your recent salary, why u leave the company, do u have any question
An AI chatbot who interrupts you during your answers. Also predominantly just asks about experiences from HS despite talking to the recruiter and letting them know you are an older candidate
