Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 2 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela AlphaSights em jan. de 2014
Entrevista
The first part of the process was an video interview. I had to answer 4/5 questions. You almost have no time for preparations but most of the questions that you can be asked can be found on the website so search it thoroughly and train.
Mine were the followings:
- can you tell us about a time when you had a difficulty/failed something ?
- what does Alphasights do ?
- Tell us about a movie you like.
- Tell us about a time you worked in a team.
I don't remember the last one.
Then I was invited to a face to face interview. The interviewer was kind and welcoming so you're not likely to feel uneasy.
He will basically try to understand your background. You need to be able to explain it clearly and in details. I think that the interviewer really wants to see the core of the motivation so don't be vague, be very precise and do not hang around. You need to be able to speak about your education and your work experience during a long time and to answer very precise questions.

I think the most "difficult" question, although it was not very difficult if you think about it, was to pick a random object in the room and invent a work situation at Alphasights based on it. A good way to do it is to think of an item and of the industry which produces it: what kind of experts could you provide to a client willing to invest in such an industry and what questions would he have ? Think of the problems linked to raw materials, demand on the world markets and all the supply chain. Give examples of experts who could help the client with these matters.
Other tricky questions, because I never really thought about it : what is personal your conception of money ? what do you do with your money ?
I applied for the Graduate Analyst position at London. The process lasted for around 1 month from contacted by hr to interview. I went through HR screening and user interview. The interview process was okay.

The interview was conducted online and lasted around 20 minutes. It was a one-to-one video interview with a hiring manager. The questions were mainly focused on my background, previous experience, and motivation for applying to the Graduate Analyst position. They also asked about my expected salary and availability. The atmosphere was professional but friendly, and the interview followed a structured format.
Good interview, asking primarily about characteristics and personal experiences. Very self-focused, with a lot of emphasis on personality rather than technical ability. Overall interviewers in both screening and first-round interviews were nice people and polite.
