I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at AlphaSights
Interview
After I submitted my application online, I received a link for video interviews. I never actually spoke to anyone at AlphaSights at this stage. There were 4 or so questions, had 30 seconds to prepare, and 2 minutes to answer each question. After passing this, I was invited to a video interview with an associate and manager. The questions were asked very rapidly one after the other.
Three rounds - first round general competency, second round case study and phone call role play, third round an hour long competency and experience interview with a VP. Third round was a longer and more difficult version of first round. Second round involved one case study with access before, and the second case study was done on the spot.

Coffee chat with Alphasights recruiter
One to one interview with recruiter - regular STAR questions, ended up asking about my proficiency in a third language I spoke even though that wasn't what I was recruited for
Interview with VP(?)
3-4 stages, last stage was really unexpected a far more intense behavioural and background interview, wasn't really given any materials from the company. However HR was super helpful whenever I reached out.
