Bridgewater Trading Operations Associate (FT) Interview Insight

Hi y'all, I'm interviewing at Bridgewater for a FT Trading Ops Associate position. I have read all of the other topics on this subject. The first step is a HireVue like video interview, I'm assuming they still utilize the debate format following that. I know they're extremely heavy into a fit with their radical culture. But, with the coronavirus, I'm not sure if things will change.

I've read Principles and some BW Observations. Just wondering if anyone could give some insight on what kind of questions/technicals/types of interviews. to expect? Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
