I applied through college or university. I interviewed at AlphaSights (Hamburg) in Oct 2017
Interview
The company was at my university's carrer fair and offered an application round.
Although the face-to-face interview was over a month ago, I still have not heard anything back (neither has one of the other candidates I knew).
I have NEVER encountered such a disrespectful behaviour before. If you conduct a personal interview, at least send a rejection mail.
Horrible management. Would not recommend to anyone.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
- describe your academic and professional life thus far
- why do you want to work for Alphasights
... this part is pretty standard
But I was also asked lots of questions about the firm. You really need to do your research before the interview.
- how does alphasights make money? What is the business model?
- who are the competitors?
- who are the clients? How do we get our clients?
- what motivates experts to collaborate with us?
