I applied online. I interviewed at PIMCO (Emea) in Oct 2023
Interview
4 interviews back to back. The process was overly behavioral. The interviews were around 30 minutes long each and they really pushed it with behaviorals. I don't think i was actually asked a single technical question which was very surprising.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at PIMCO (London, England)
Interview
There were multiple stages. In the first stage it was less formal, but gradually got more formal and harder in the later interviews. Got to know technicals and market knowledge.
Phone interview which was very technical. Resources were sent before the interview but interviewer went on to different topics too. Organisation around the interview was clear and people were pleasant to speak to.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Explain implication of treasury yields on wider credit markets
First round was a video interview with mostly behavioural questions. Second round are 4 1v1 interviews with VP, with both behavioural and technical questions, mainly focus on fixed income investment and news. Never hearing back from the HR, super slow process
