Applied online, within 2 weeks, received first interview ( one-end, recording answers, 5 questions, each question has 2 minutes to answer and unlimited time to prepare). Waited for a couple weeks, followed up with HR, back and forth for a couple weeks more, found out the HR has left the company, keep following up with other HR, Never heard back from the review and now 2 months have passed.

I was very excited when I received an e-mail from a PIMCO recruiter to set up a phone interview; however, looking back, I think people glorify working for PIMCO. It is not quite as professional as you would imagine. At first, I was nervous to interview with the interviewer because their qualifications were impressive (Ivy League degrees). However, I quickly realized that the interviewer was exceedingly unprofessional and rude. The whole process was alarming and discouraging. It certainly left a bad taste in my mouth and I certainly will not be applying there again. Note to applicants: be warned that the interviewer might flake on you
