Process
This was the initial video interview experience. It went smoothly. It is just a 5-minute interview with no technical questions at this point.
For international students, I would suggest applying when you start processing your OPT application. The chances of immediate recruitment are high since you already have your EAD.
Make sure to make eye contact, i.e., look into your camera. It is usually hard, but you can do it with practice questions.

MathWorks Work Experiences

- 3.0Great opportunity for ramped-up learning, but make plans to leave soonApplications Support Engineer • Former EmployeeNatick, Massachusetts, United StatesOctober 10, 2009Pros: Great platform for fresh graduates to learn. A decent amount of freedom to choose what you want to do.Cons: Downsides of this role? Well, after a year, maybe your learning curve becomes stagnant, and you want to move out of this role. Unfortunately, the organization is very conservative, so positions in your field of choice might not open up at all. You are literally wasting half of your time doing technical support and talking to customers who mostly can't get anything done on their own. More than half of the management is non-technical, so they have no idea of what they are talking about most of the time. Just smile and take it. Huge disparity in pay scales for the same role. If you went to a branded school, you get a lot more than you deserve; performers are not rewarded aptly.
