I posted my resume on monster and got a call from a recruiter who works with Bridgewater. We had several talks about prepping for the phone interview, where I was told to take notes and study questions that they had given me. This was the first point that should have made me more wary of Bridgewater. The preparation that they made me do was absolutely ludicrous for a receptionist position. I ignored my gut feeling and went through with the phone interview. It was basic enough, and the woman who I spoke to was very polite and attributed to the conversation. I was excited to hear that they wanted to interview me on site in a group interview, since the phone interview was so pleasant. When I arrived, I was greeted by 3 robotic receptionists who took my coat. I then sat in the lobby for about 25 minutes with the other people I was going to be in a group with, engaging in an intense stare down with all of them. We were then lead through a maze of hallways up to a conference room that was chock full of cameras and microphones. We sat around a table with the manager of the receptionist team, a receptionist, and another woman who was interviewing 2 other men for another position at the same time. for the next 2 hours, we were each asked about ourselves and the topics on our resume. Then they began to grill us all about why we did the things that we did, why we work where we work, and why we don't tell our bosses that the choices that they make are not always wise. They seem to harbor on the delusion that all places are like their atmosphere. I told them that unfortunately my job and making money to support myself is far more important than telling my boss that they make bad choices (this may have been my downfall). We were then asked to work in a group to come up with the most important aspects of customer service. We all worked together, and I found myself sparring with an overbearing loudmouth who thought that the more she talked, the better off she would be. I ended up winning the argument with her, and the interviewers criticized her for being so loud and obnoxious with the others. I didn't get an offer, as I was informed through my recruiter. Their feedback was simply that they got a vibe that I would not be able to multitask, and that I said something along those lines while being interrogated (I never did). I felt like I wasted a huge amount of my time with them. The interviewers seemed like a bunch of pompous dictators who didn't understand how to smile. They all had ridiculously high opinions of themselves and looked like they lived and breathed Ray Dalio and his creepy culture. The entire building was brainwashed. I was secretly relieved when I heard that I was not invited back. All in all, the place is good for a select few who A. either actually believe in the principals and are willing to be brainwashed or B. are really good actors who want to get their foot in the door.
