Interviewed Oct 2011 in Boston, MA (took a day)
I received an email asking for scheduling a time for phone interview one week after I applied on their website. The phone interview only included behavioral questions and some other very basic question like "could you describe your research topic" or "why are you interested in this job." Also, the HR asked if I was ever applied other jobs in Mathworks before. After finishing the phone interview, my status on their website changed into "not ideal for this position". No idea where I did wrong.

The first interview was basic HR after which I was scheduled for a technical round. It consisted of the questions the kind of which have been mentioned on here and can be memorized. So my advice would be to look up all the questions on here.
