Process

I applied online and received an interview request within 15 days.

The first round was a video interview. The questions included: Why Mathworks, GPA, resolving conflicts, working in a team, and visa status.

After that, I received an email from HR to schedule a phone technical interview. I opted for Java and web technologies. Some of the questions were:

  • Code snippets for inheritance, polymorphism, and Strings.
  • Generics, String pool, etc.
  • A couple of code snippets for JavaScript.
  • Questions related to data structures, such as what graphs are and how a HashMap works.
  • Design questions like how you would design a vending machine.
  • OS-related questions like critical sections, mutex locks, and deadlocks.
  • Some math questions related to probability.

The next round was with a hiring manager, and some behavioral questions were asked (be prepared to give some instances).

The next round was with HR. Waiting for the results :-)
