Bridgewater Intern Recruitment Process

Hi,

I was recently reached out by a recruiter from Bridgewater, following my application on the firm's webpage. I haven't done networking or anything just submitted my app and heard back.

The person said there will be a brief phone call with a recruiter (informal). What can I expect from this call if there's anyone here who went through the process?

Hi! I'm doing the phone call with the recruiter next Wednesday and would appreciate your insights. I'm curious what they look for in candidates and how the call went for you. thank you sm! 

 

Hi! I'm in the exact same shoes as you - didn't network and got an invite for a "casual chat". I was curious how the call went for you and your experience. could you DM me? thanks!
