Bridgewater IE interview advice?

I have first real phone screen (technical/analytic) coming up with bridgewater and I'm wondering if anyone has any advice. This is for their engineering (which I guess is software/data science-y) role. I've read through the other 75 comment advice thread (can't post link because of forums rules) and gone through all of the brain teasers in "heard on the street". Also looked through glassdoor but there's not much there for this role. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. I've also read principles and am familiar with their culture (so I don't need advice on that).

Hey throwaway_bridge_w, I'm here because nobody responded to this thread after a few days...maybe one of these resources will help you:

If we're lucky, the following pros may have something to say: @FdL85" @rothyman" @alta56"

Hope that helps.
