I applied online. I interviewed at PIMCO (Seattle, WA) in Oct 2021
Interview
A coding interview followed by an in-person interview. The coding interview was on HackerRank and was hard to debug because it had hidden test cases that one couldn't view. The coding interview covered SQL and Java. It included arrays and dictionaries. The last question was a stock trading scenario and was quite interesting and challenging to solve.
- OA
- HireVue (you can only record response once for each question and limited preparation time)
- two rounds of virtual onsite, one technical with an engineer, the other with HR and another engineer
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Resume related questions, classes you take at school, teamwork experience
I was sent an online assessment several weeks after applying and was expected to solve three problems within three hours. All questions were all related to stocks and trading, so I thought it was relevant to the company.
