Process

I applied online and the process took over three months.

I interviewed at MathWorks (Natick, MA) in February 2015.

I have passed the video interview. It consisted of five questions, and each question had two minutes to answer. Now I am preparing for the technical interview.

They emailed me a video interview link within two days after I applied online. The link was active for two weeks. By using the link, I completed the video interview.

Questions

  1. HR round (online video recorded) - 15 mins
  2. Technical Phone Interview (Math, C/C++, Programming Concepts, Control Systems) - 1 hour
  3. On-site interview (Math, C/C++, Programming Concepts, Control Systems) - 4 rounds, 9 am - 2 pm

Programming Concepts:

  1. Given a random array of numbers, how do you sort them? Select any sorting algorithm and write the pseudocode. (C) I implemented Merge Sort with a merge subroutine. I forgot the base case; I added it later.
  2. 1/8th of a circle. (NS) I gave a semi-optimum solution.
