I applied online. I interviewed at MathWorks (Cambridge, England) in Jul 2022
Interview
The interview process is very demanding. They also gave a design exercise, did multiple rounds with different members of the team TWICE! However their rejection process was the most disappointing. I was ghosted by them and after a grueling 3 week effort and around 8 rounds of interviews and presentations, putting in work which looked better than their native product, I had to check their system to know that I was rejected, even though they had informed me that they would reach out to me via email. Further they ghosted me for any feedback. It was a complete waste of time and bit unethical.

Interview
There were many rounds of interviews with the hiring manager and recruiter.
I had to do a design exercise that's heavily focused on my visual and interaction design skills. Also had to present my design and thought process to the hiring manager. Afterwards, I had to make a 30 minute presentation to a panel of interviewers followed by 1 on 1 interviews with each of the panelists.
Overall positive interview and even though my point of contact was pretty transparent about the process, this many rounds of interviews and having to make two separate presentations was pretty taxing.
