I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Bridgewater Associates
Interview
I went through numerous interviews with Bridgewater for this position. Their questions are very detailed and they analyze your character in detail. The questions were often difficult to answer and they pay attention to every word you say. It is unlike any interview I have been on and It is clear that it is a very unique place to work.

Question 1
Interview was not very difficult. Typical questions like why Bridgewater, past experience, about me, etc.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Bridgewater Associates (Westport, CT) in Mar 2013
Interview
Watched some culture tapes and then spoke with 2 interviewers. Did a couple of case studies. Cultural fit is most important to them (at least for this position). No matter how good you are at what you do, if you don't spend enough time thinking and enjoy the thinking process, you'll probably have a hard time working there - they told me this right after the interview that I won't fit in their culture. I don't completely agree with what they say, but I think it's good that they're being so honest, saves time for each other.

If I ask you to jump off the plane without a parachute, would you jump?
