I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 12 months. I interviewed at AlixPartners (Londres, Inglaterra) in Jan 2013
Interview
very deep with all sorts of interviews and personality tests - then lots and lots of cases interviews and personality and experience fitting and then more and more cases and more interviews - the whole process was very long
overall experience was exhausting
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at AlixPartners in Sep 2021
Interview
Very thorough and lengthy interview process. An HR screening, followed by an interview with a Director, then a set of online assessments (personality and reasoning), then a red carpet interview day with case interviews. At every level very detailed questions related to work experience and ability to work in teams.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Standard fit questions (Tell me about yourself, Why consulting, Why AlixPartners)
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at AlixPartners (Boston, MA) in Oct 2019
Interview
Rather rigorous. Multiple qualification stages before interview, including online battery of personality profiles and IQ test, and telephone psych eval with a company psychologist. Super day is approximately 6 straight hours of back-to-back-to-back interviews, another times IQ test, and a crash business case presentation and interview/defense. Interviews were fairly freeform however, as opposed to strictly scripted.
I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AlixPartners (Mountain View, CA)
Interview
They come on campus to do tell about the company, and I liked what they told, even though I was not interested in the company. Later I reached out to one of the speakers and he helped arrange an interview with one of the employees in my area. After finding that I had prior experience in consulting and was mainly interested in entrepreneurship, the representative seemingly lost interest in me, and we continued with my question, from which I got a sense that there is no very unique about the company from the point of view of a regular employee.
