Anyone interned in a major hedge fund (Citadel, Shaw, AQR, Tudor) as an undergrad?

Has anyone interviewed or interned in a top hedge fund (Citadel, Shaw, AQR, Tudor, Quantum, etc)? What is the interview process like, how many interns do they take, and how did you get in (cold call, campus recruiting, etc). Also, if you can please share your summer experience and background that would be great.

I already interned in a BB S&T and curious about interning at a hedge fund, however, I'm not clear about the interview process, the actual internship, and how to even get in contact with the recruiter. Thanks guys.
