Please describe the interview / hiring process.
I went through 2 rounds. First HR Phone Interview, then an interview with the Portfolio Manager for the Long/Short Equity Desk. Since I was in NYC, I had my "in person interview" through a webcast through PIMCO's NYC office. Interview required being very fluid in pitching a stock, citing P/E, EPS, and other metrics relative to peers on the spot. I had not prepared for it, and did poorly.
