Process

Applied online through the Mathworks website.

  • After about a week, I had the first round (HR round) with the questions already mentioned.
  • After approximately 1.5 weeks, I received an email to schedule a phone interview.

Just finished the phone interview (signal processing/C/Matlab).

I answered all the questions (3 or 4 of them, somewhat vaguely). Personally, I believe I did really well.

I'm not sure what they were expecting for a "support engineer" role, but memorize as much as you can.

There were a couple of questions not mentioned on Glassdoor; I will update others shortly.

  • Left Inverse / Right Inverse matrices
  • How to pass a char by reference in C
  • Function to convert a string into uppercase: How do you pass the string (value or reference)? My preference is value.
  • Break and continue in a for loop in C
  • How to work on the same figure in MATLAB after closing and reopening the application (editing in startup.m?)

Questions

To continue working on a figure after you close and open the MATLAB application.
