I interviewed in September 2024, the hr interview was good but the process seemed all over the place for the discussion interview. The link was not sent to the zoom room until an hour before, I think they forgot about me
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bridgewater (Stamford, CT)
Interview
A group zoom where we were asked to discuss philosophical questions. The ones I was asked were: If you could stop aging, would you? Should prisoners be allowed to vote?
The interview process at Bridgewater was an interesting experience to say the least. Far away from what I was expecting in an interview from a hedge fund. I feel like you either like it or you don't but I actually enjoyed the more abstract nature of the interview.

If I could press a button to stop the technological frontier as I know it, would I press it? Why/why not?
