I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at AlphaSights in Mar 2025
Interview
First stage interview was fine, pretty standard, and went well. The interviewer mentioned that this interview was one of 5 (?!) which is excessive and wasn’t disclosed before. Also not disclosed before was the salary etc. I received a standard template email afterwards as a rejection and was refused feedback as ‘there is a high number of candidates’ at that stage. This is a real shame as interviews take a large amount of time out of someone’s day (preparation, the actual interview during working hours). A real discard for their candidates to not give any feedback after a face to face interview. Poor.
The interview process is rigorous, transparent, and free from external influence. Candidates are selected solely on merit, ensuring fairness, objectivity, and equal opportunity throughout every stage of recruitment and assessment.

Interview
Friendly interviewer, walked through my CV and asked questions then asked behavioural questions, asked what I knew about the role and the company, and then a slightly unexpected practical question identifying compliance risks which was unexpected for a first round interview!

Question 1
Describe a time you had to work with a difficult shareholder
Pretty straightforward, there are multiple interviews and a case study as well. Details basic knowledge and experience; resume and personal questions, too. Second interview was probably the longest. Last round was with upper management.
