Interview questions [1]
Question 1
asked about every line that's on my resume.
How the audit was done. Was there an improvement in my previous work? How did I calculate the improvement
What regulatory reports were reported, For how many states
The interview was extremely technical. They didn’t ask for an introduction or any background before immediately diving into solving textbook-style engineering problems. The focus was almost entirely on technical problem-solving rather than behavioral conversation or learning about my experience.
I applied online. I interviewed at Tesla (Palo Alto, CA) in Apr 2024
Interview
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.
