J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Bridgewater Associates en juill. 2018
Entretien
I was contacted by a recruiter on LinkedIn. We had an informative call later that week. She was very friendly and professional. A few days later had a call with the account manager who did an in-depth resume screen and asked questions such as life aspirations, where I see myself in five years, and how Bridgewater could assist with that.
I was then passed to a Bridgewater candidate lead. Once again, very professional and friendly - perhaps the most of any company I've interviewed with. We set up a call a week later with a member from the Investment team.
The "analytical problem" interview comprised two thought process questions. These were difficult, yet interesting to answer. They consisted of a situation with constraints and asked to identify an optimization formula. You have 10-15 minutes for each problem.
