I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at MathWorks in Oct 2016
Interview
I talked to a technical recruiter at my school's career fair and a couple days later I received an email from a corporate recruiter to set up a phone call.
The phone call took less than 15 minutes and I got to ask a couple of questions about the company. The recruiter said that she would forward my information to a hiring manager and they would determine if I'd be moving on to the next step.
I found out the next day the "match was not ideal" - I would suggest MathWorks forward a candidate's information to a hiring manager BEFORE setting up a phone call in order to not waste the recruiter's and candidate's time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you manage your time/deadlines?
What are you looking for in a job when considering companies?
You will have to complete a hirevue and then a hacker rank assessment with a few coding questions and matlab multiple choice questions. You get plenty of time to complete the hacker rank assessment.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at MathWorks in Nov 2023
Interview
Two stage testing process which was automated: the first part was generally what I would describe as math or logical puzzle solving and the second part was code focused. There was the option to complete the interview testing in MATLAB or C or Java. It was reminiscent of standardized testing in some ways. As an alternative to the standardized test format there was a HackerRank coding option as well.
