Got the interview through an on campus recruitment event.
1 HR Round, 2 Technical rounds -
First round is just about your resume, and fit assessment .
Why Tesla?
The next two rounds were completely based on manufacturing related questions
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why Tesla?
If there is a process A, with so many stations, how would you go about analyzing it and improving the throughput?
How would you allocate manpower to the line?
It was good and a lot of shop floor experience and a good manufacturing background. Overall, I would say if you prefer on floor job, this would be a great fit
I applied online. I interviewed at Tesla (San Francisco, CA) in Sep 2024
Interview
Not too hard. I had two interviews one with my manager and one with my mentor. Both where very chill with no behavioral questions just about the company and my resume.

2-3 screening interviews and then presentation interview with panel of 3-4 engineers, select subject of your interest and present. Panel member dropped after 20 minutes for unknown reason. Needless to say, it was Friday and they hate the process themselves.
