I applied through college or university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at MathWorks (Natick, MA) in Nov 2012
Interview
I met with an Engineering Development Group (EDG) Engineer at a career fair at my university campus. I was convinced to put my information in the system. I was then contacted by email to submit an application and resume. I was then approached by a recruiter to answer some quick questions and submit to an over-the-phone technical interview. They allowed for a choice between computer science, controls and signal processing. I chose signal processing. I was invited to what they call a "college day," which is a large day of interviews for a number of candidates. They make a point of saying that the candidates are not competing with one another. The college day had a manager interview, HR interview, and technical interview. After the college day, they asked for a couple weeks to submit to a background check and responses from 5 references that they asked me to supply. At the end of this, they decided not to extend me an offer.
There were three phases for recruiting procedures. The first stage was a brief and relaxing conversation, the second stage was about technical things and hiring manager asked several questions in the third stage.
