Networking call, then a phone call, before a 1:1 Skype interview and then super day. Typical questions revolving around your background during the phone calls, then more complex questions relating to cases during the interview.

Question 1
Why PIMCO? Why are you trying to find job opportunities?
I applied in-person. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at PIMCO in Apr 2021
Interview
The interview process was long and arduous with multiple panel interviews. Contact during the process was quite poor. The talent team in the people function did not keep me appropriately informed on status during the process. Interviews were often set up with little notice.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at PIMCO in Apr 2021
Interview
This was a fairly easy and good process, quick turn around on interviews, meetings with multiple different people. They were a little slow to give feedback after the interview process.
