I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Tesla in May 2024
Interview
I interviewed for the Autopilot team. The interviewer was not interested or prepared for the interview. My interview was even interrupted by him as he didn't find a proper place to interview me and started walking around the office midway during the interview to find a place to sit.
Interview should have been a standard Data structure algorithm kind of interview. However, the interviewer asked me to do some multithreading problem in Python and Go, and asked me to open documentation for the relevant libraries as he gave me the problem description.
Remembering the coding question about finding a peak element gives me a sense of relief. It was nearly the same as one I had practiced on PracHub a few days prior. The interview process began with a recruiter screening my resume, followed by a technical phone interview where we discussed data structures and algorithms. The onsite included two additional rounds focusing on coding and behavioral questions. Overall, the experience was straightforward, and I felt well-prepared, ultimately leading to an offer that I happily accepted.
2 Technical Coding Screen, followed by onsite. Interesting problems and role related. Friendly recruiting coordinator. On site - in person, several rounds, includes presentation and question & answers. Highly role related and based on past experiences.
pretty chill. asked about evaluation metrics, calculate 2 metrics given a data log. has_collided, radial TTC. A few questions from my resume. How did you determine xyz, what are the factors, and what could be some other factors?
