PIMCO 2nd Round Interview - Associate

It's been awhile since I posted on these forums for advice. Recently I was offered a 2nd round interview for PIMCO for an associate position within their account management group. This is a post analyst position. I want to know if there is anything specific I should know going into the interview from people who have gone through this before. I've gone through the search function and most relevant searches seems out of date. Thanks in advance.
