The interviewer was very friendly. She introduced herself and then asked me a few questions about my background and my career goals. She also asked why I wanted to work at AlphaSights and what skills I wanted to develop through this role. the interview lasted about an hour and at the end, I had to do a mini case study exercise, which lasted about 5-10 min. I received an email on the same day, notifying me that I was invited to do the second round of interviews.

First round of interviews was a phone call with someone on their talent acquisition team to learn more about you. The interviewer spoke as fast as possible and squeezed 30 minutes of questions into 15 minutes. At the end while I was still speaking and thanking her for the opportunity to interview, she hung up on me. Don't schedule an interview if you're going to rush it and cut them off at the end!
