The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bridgewater Associates
Interview
Interviewers were rude. It seems like the people who interviewed me have honest and transparent mixed with rude and degrading. There is a fine line between the two and they have definitely crossed it. Their criticism is in no way constructive, and I am unsure how they refer to themselves as a flat organization when they treat their interviewers poorly and clearly see themselves as superior.
I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Bridgewater Associates (Westport, CT)
Interview
30 minute phone screen, no technical questions, all about resume and fit...never really got anywhere meaningful though. I don't think, in an interview process, I've ever had a situation where I came away feeling my time had been wasted like this. "Radical transparency" or not, this all felt silly.
