Question 1
Being a relatively senior firm overall, past experience and what you bring to the table appears to be key
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.
