I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla (Fremont, CA)
Interview
I had a great interview experience! I was informed of next steps and always updated when new info was available.
The process involved a phone screen with the recruiter, then a phone interview with the hiring manager and then onsite with the team. The interview process moved quickly ~ about a week from initial phone interview to onsite. Everything went smooth and am very grateful with how organized the process was. Everyone I encountered was friendly and HR was always willing to answer any questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why Tesla? Why are you leaving your current role? What do you know about this position? Tell me about a time you handled a difficult situation? Questions around how I can adapt to change and how to handle it as well as how to handle many projects simultaneously.
HR call, hiring manager call, panel interview (multiple 30min back-to-back) with people you will be working with. Most of the questions are behavioral questions and walk through some of the projects in the past
It was a multiple round process and each interview was for one department. It was a mix of technical and behavioral. They are trying to see where will you be the best fit and where will you be able to grow.
They try to figure out how you think. Some technical testing with regard to basic coding skills, Excel, etc. They will ask you some technical questions based off your resume.
