The early production of heavy-flavor (HF, charm and beauty) quarks makes them an excellent probe of the dynamical evolution of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) systems. Jets tagged by the presence of a HF hadron give access to the kinematics of the heavy quarks, and along with correlation measurements involving HF hadrons allow for comparisons of their production, propagation and fragmentation across different systems. In this contribution the latest results on HF jets and correlations measured with the ALICE detector in pp, p--Pb and Pb--Pb collisions from the LHC Run 2 data are reported.
