I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at AlixPartners (London, England) in Jul 2018
Interview
The interview process was lengthy and tedious. It took over 3 months time and the whole team appeared to be unprepared and not as professional as a firm I would like to work for. Firstly, they never confirmed what interviews I was having, then I had to chase them for each stage feedback multiple times (through recruiter and director). There was 4 stages and it appeared to be disorganised, with some interviewers having little background to the role or subject to perform skills and CV interviews.

Question 1
Talk about your own experience, numerical and logical reasoning
Thank you for your feedback. We strive to make our recruiting experience timely, effective, and most importantly candidate-focused through each step of the process. It’s disappointing to hear that we did not meet that standard during your interview process, and I would welcome a discussion in confidence if you would like to provide additional feedback.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 8 months. I interviewed at AlixPartners (New York, NY)
Interview
Lack of transparency throughout. Completed several components of the interview. HR and hiring team slowplayed process - has to reach out for multiple updates and just dragged along.
Similar to below interview, still being considered after my performance; told no hiring yet ongoing job posts exist.
Wish this process was simpler without so many steps and lack of communication.

Question 1
Why Alix Partners? And why specifically the operations practice
Did not take too long due to an accelerated business need. However, it was an intense process. The process included an external recruiter screen, internal HR screen, a panel interview with function leads, and two interviews with senior stakeholders. There was also a testing round and an interview with an organizational psychologist.
