Applications Support Engineer Interview Experience - Natick, Massachusetts
Process
I submitted my resume through the MathWorks website.
A few days later, I received a phone call from HR.
All questions were behavioral. They told me about the company, the position, and the freedom to choose projects to work on, etc.
This initial call was REALLY easy, and then they scheduled a technical phone interview for the following week.
The technical interview went very fast, with lots of questions the interviewer wanted to ask in a short amount of time (about 40 minutes). The questions covered:
- Linear algebra (vectors, matrices)
- Programming concepts
- MATLAB
- Basic signal processing
Questions
What is the use of virtual functions?
What are friend functions?
What is the importance of defining a virtual destructor?
What's the difference between continuous-time and discrete-time systems? What is the region of stability of a discrete-time system?
What's the Power Spectral Density? How do you compute it?
