I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at MathWorks (Natick, MA) in Nov 2012
Interview
At first there was a couple of phone interviews, maybe 2 or 3 with HR and one tech person. However, after those short ones were over, there was a 45 minute interviews grilling my on data structures question. I made it past that round but after that they didn't like my lack of knowledge of MATLAB. They definitely want you to know CS not only in practice but in theory.
Technical coding assessment given on online platform. Plenty of time for assessment, easy and medium difficulty questions. A series of questions about my experience for which I recorded a video response
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Do you have any experience with object oriented programming languages
Multiple coding assessments online, with browser use monitored to prevent cheating. The online environment had no linting or suggestions, so you need to know the correct syntax and function names for your selected programming language

Question 1
Generally was string handling and mathematical puzzles they had contrived.
The interview process included an initial HireVue behavioural assessment, followed by a timed technical test with algorithmic questions. After that, I had a interview where I walked through my CV and answered scenario-based questions
