I submitted my resume and cover letter directly on their website for the people operations role. I was also required to answer a short answer response to talk about why I wanted to work at AlphaSights. I was then contacted a couple days later by a recruiter to set up a phone interview. The phone interview was all behavioral questions (ex: tell me about a time when...) and she was really interested in understanding how I chose my major at school, why I am interested in the student orgs I am involved in, and my college decision process. She asked me a couple questions about my leadership experiences, teamwork, and problem-solving skills. The interview lasted about 45 minutes. Two days later, I was contacted by the same interviewer with an invitation to their NY office for final rounds. We emailed back and forth to set up the best time that worked for both of us. She remained prompt with email communication, which is always really nice during any recruiting process. I went to their NY office on a Friday afternoon and had two 1hr interviews each with 4 people from the POPs team. I enjoyed the opportunity to meet 5 out of 7 POPs members throughout the interview process. They asked detailed behavioral questions, walked through my resume, inquired about my passions, and reasons why I wanted to work at AlphaSights. The interviewers were really interested in hearing about all my experiences and gave me feedback on what I was saying with head nods and positive acknowledgments throughout. It felt more like a conversation than a formal interview. About 2 weeks later, I received a verbal offer to join their team. My experiences with AlphaSights was very positive and efficient. My biggest advice would be to go into the interview knowing what AlphaSights do, know why you are interested in the company and position, and be genuine with your answers. The recruiters interview hundreds of people so they know when an applicant is not being authentic with their answers. Be excited about your interests, even if it's not directly relevant to knowledge brokerage- they are really looking for people who are entrepreneurial, genuine, and passionate. I would say the People Operations interview felt more like they were interviewing for personality and culture fit more than hard skills.

Horrible and impersonal. Looking for certain personality traits and only have 30 second to answer first round interview questions. The questions are extreme basic and not related to the position. In addition, your recording your answers and have no redo.
