I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at MathWorks (Natick, MA) in Jan 2018
Interview
A MathWorks submitted employee referral. Then the hiring manager called me and asked a few technical questions. It was followed by a programming challenge which I had two days to solve. It was a mildly difficult. Once I emailed the solution back. Another engineer called me and asked me a few technical questions.
Then a recruiter called me and told me they were going to move me to an onsite interview. Before the interview, I was asked to put together some slides to discuss a previous project. The hiring manager reviewed the slides and gave his comments. All communication was via email.
At the onsite interview, I first presented the slides to a group of about 10 engineers. It was then followed by five interviews, each of which was about 45 minutes. Most the interviews were mostly technical. I felt reasonably challenged.
After the onsite interview, I was told that they were going to do reference and background check. In another week, I was offered the job. They were willing to wait until my interviews with other companies were finished. Very kind of them. Sadly, I did not accept the offer.
My experience of MathWorks' interview process is very positive. They were moving extremely fast. I feel the interview process was a little too long, including two phone interviews, one programming challenge, and slides for presentation. But after all these activities, I felt that I got to know this company very well.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at MathWorks (Cambridge, England) in Oct 2024

I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at MathWorks in Dec 2022
Interview
The application process started with an initial call from the person leading the team I'd be deployed in. There were some technical questions C++, but the chat was mostly about the work they do and guageing my experience. Then there was an HR interview to check my right to work status, salary expectations, etc. Finally, there was a whole day on-site interview where I was asked to prepare a 45min presentation on a problem/project I've been involved in, highlighting the problem and how I ended executing the project. This was followed by around 4 hours of technical interviews from the team and another HR interview. The technical interviews weren't overly complicated and the discussions were pleasant enough. Final verdict is that the on-site was quite long and exhausting, but I had a good time overall. Having to prepare a 45min presentation was a bit annoying through.
