Alpha FMC I have a first round interview coming up. Can someone give me some insight what it’s like to work in advisory within alpha alternatives? What kind of projects? What is the comp like (%bonus vs base pay), is it remote except for client travel? I’m based out of the U.S.

Its majority client travel, and you could be sent to the US. Expect long hours, skeletal projects, but OK money

I’m based in the US. Travel could be out of the country?

Progression is decent too. More base than bonus

Hi! How did it go? Any feedback on the process?
