      Portfolio Compliance Associate Interview

      11 Sept 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Austin, TX
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at PIMCO (Austin, TX)

      Interview

      First step is an Excel Assessment. I was notified I had reached the first phase on Wednesday morning, and was requested to complete a 1-hour Excel Assessment on Thursday morning with time frames of 7-8am, 8-9am, 9-10am. At 7:05am (my requested time) I had still not received the assessment, so I reached out to PIMCO. Assessment was provided at 7:10 with the due-date remaining at 8am. While the assessment was easy (pretty basic excel plus vlookup and a couple interest rate/bond questions), PIMCO was not punctual, nor did they acknowledge their errors. I requested to rescind my application and did not complete the assessment. They additionally had UK based campus recruiters for a States based interview class which makes no sense. TLDR: Lack of timeliness, ability to acknowledge their errors. Did not complete assessment and rescinded application.
