Engineering Interview Experience - Natick, Massachusetts
Process
I received an email for a Mathworks virtual career fair in February.
After applying for the career fair and finding out it was full, I sent my resume to the company through their website to see if I could get an interview that way.
At the beginning of April, I received a phone call from a Mathworks employee expressing interest in scheduling a phone interview. He asked a few basic questions about my resume, if I was still seeking employment, and what group I was interested in interviewing with at Mathworks.
He was basically feeling me out to see if he should extend an interview offer to me. So far, that is as far as I have made it in the interview process.
I have the phone interview scheduled in a couple days and will update my post then.
The phone interview, as stated by the employee, is going to cover:
- Basic math
- MATLAB
- Programming concepts
- One programming language
Also, I had to choose which overall topic or group I wanted to interview with. The choices were controls, computer science, and signal processing.
The interview is supposed to last between 40-60 minutes.

MathWorks Work Experiences
- 1.0Low pay, bad managementEngineering • Current EmployeeNatick, Massachusetts, United StatesAugust 26, 2013Pros: You usually get a nice office.Cons: The pay is 30% to 40% lower than comparable positions at similarly sized software companies. The company uses a fairly arbitrary stack ranking policy, so the managers are a bunch of butt-covering mediocrities who couldn't use a piece of software if their lives depended on it, never mind design and code up a piece of software.
