J'ai postulé via un établissement d'enseignement supérieur ou universitaire. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez MathWorks (Lafayette, IN) en sept. 2012
Entretien
Had a chat with the Mathworks representative at the career fair at campus, and got an interview on the next day. The first interview is the standard behavioral questions: describe yourself; describe your projects; why Mathworks; multiple deadlines; which tools for time management; resolving conflicts.
A technical interview was held two weeks after. It was on-campus 1:1 interview, which lasted for two and a half hours...Basically the questions covered EVERYTHING, in the basics. So you really need to have a solid foundation. Most of the questions were very trivial (what is differentiation, rank of matrix), so it was really a tough test -- why? Because you cannot miss AT ALL (unfortunately, I missed). If you do not know the exact answer, try to show your solution step by step in front your interviewer; or if you cannot remember a specific command in MATLAB, you can write a "pseudocode" to win partial credit (possibly).
Still wait for the result regarding the next step...
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
In addition to the questions posted in this forum:
Math: (elementary)
1. Partial fraction expansion
2. Solve an ODE
Programming: (everything... C/C++/Java)
1. Global and local scope
2. What is Generics in Java?
3. What are JDK and JRE?
4. Nested try blocks
5. Tricky things about String and StringBuffer
MATLAB: (most tricky part, really unpredictable)
1. Change the color of a data line in the figure using code
2. MATLAB Profiler
3. Debug using code (dbstop)
4. Advantages of preallocation using zeros(n,1)
5. Does this code work:
A = 0;
for k = 0:10
A(k) = i * i;
end
disp(double(A))
Fix it and then give the output.
Control Theory: (pretty elementary)
1. Phase compensators
2. Why poles in OLHCP make system unstable
3. IRC circuit to ODE
There were three phases for recruiting procedures. The first stage was a brief and relaxing conversation, the second stage was about technical things and hiring manager asked several questions in the third stage.
