Colloquio
Online personality test then a phone interview. Followed by an onsite interview involving group discussion and more behavioral questions to test if you're a good fit. A few quantitative thinking questions to test your logic and reasoning. They look for people that fit the culture more than skills in trading but having basic knowledge is definitely necessary.

A great interview process that was accelerated due to an outstanding offer deadline. The culture is intense and direct, however, I got the sense that Bridgewater is a great place to work. A little different than the average prop-trading interview. It focused more on execution, process evaluation/understanding, and culture fit.

Volume of a security has been observed for two weeks. You implement a VWAP strategy. Half the day is over, and you are only 20% filled on your order. What's your move?
Was given an order book and asked to estimate fair value. Then asked to execute a trade on that order book and asked to think about how I would execute the trade and what I would need to think about. The answer they wanted was - what is your probability of getting filled at each level, and also what is the most your superior is willing to pay.
