The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Bridgewater Associates (Westport, CT) in July 2011
Interview
1. Phone interview. Things went well.
2. 2 Personality Tests, with 20 pages of feedback each
3. Group interview. Asked how we'd go about solving a data set issue without the use of the internet. Tests your familiarity of statistics, common knowledge and problem solving process.
4. Excel test. Correct errors and create a chart.
5. 1:1 Interview. Go over your excel text. Explain your logic.
Didn't get beyond this, but it was not what I thought it was going to be. Really bummed.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How can you verify that a data set is correct without use of the internet, and given that some data is missing?
Passed screening and case study, but rejected after the cultural fit round, because somehow I'm not a cultural fit, not sure what that means. Through out the process they talked about how much they value feedback but when asked for feedback was ghosted.
