I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Bridgewater Associates in Jun 2015
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter via LinkedIn. Two parts to the selection process followed: phone & in person. The phone interview was just a 'tell me about yourself' question and brief background on the company. They will send you 5 personality tests to complete. Don't sweat this part too much. If you're a good fitl, they will schedule you for an on-site interview.
The company visit was a half-day endeavor. We were asked to bring our own debate questions. We started with the debates, followed by 1-on-1 interviews with HR and senior associates. We ended with long videos on the company culture and Q&A session with HR.

There were multiple rounds of interview. Largely a test on culture fit, and overall it is what is to be expected if you prepare and do your research. I enjoyed the process.
