I applied online. I interviewed at AlphaSights (Hong Kong) in Aug 2017
Interview
Very quick interview process, CV submission then online interview with software that fires 4 questions at you, with about 30 seconds to think how to answer the questions and one minute to answer the questions. Most questions have been mentioned on Glassdoor already.
Next round was a short online video interview 45 minutes long, again, most questions mentioned on Glassdoor. Next round interview was case study (1hr) and then interview with senior member. Do not bother preparing for the case study - Case study is NOT a consulting style case, so do not bother preparing consulting cases, otherwise you will over complicate things. Following a negotiation-style phone call with 'client'.
Interviewers were very friendly, and interviews itself are not difficult - just know what the company does - was asked that more than once.
questions about resume and applicability to the role, also asked what other roles i’m recruiting for. didn’t get a second interview but i wasn’t too enthusiastic —- wish I’d rehearsed my answers to why Alphasights before
1st call interview >2nd hr interview > case study interview(if passed) > final interview(if passed). all interview is proceeding with English. and native speakers are needed. and hr people were kind
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. why I want to move my job
2. what's my long-term goal
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.
