I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla (Boston, MA) in Nov 2016
Interview
Applied through University in Boston and was contacted by Tesla University Recruiting about two weeks later for a technical phone screen for a position in California, Phone interview lasted around 40 minutes, went through resume first and then was asked a few technical questions regarding previous course content. The interviewer talked me through each question, and it seemed like they wanted to mostly see how you thought.

Question 1
How many degrees of freedom does your shoulder have?
What is work, what is energy, what is power?
Invited me to an interview then ghosted me after I gave availability. They never scheduled the interview. When I followed up, the recruiter didn’t responded to my email. Not sure what happened
My interview was scheduled for about five days after the initial email from my recruiter. It was two 30 minute interviews with members of the prospective team. Standard questions were asked about me, my experiences, and why I think I am a good fit for the role.

Question 1
How do you respond when members of your team tell you they don’t have time for you?
1 technical interview followed by a recruiter call if you get the offer. The process was very fast and very simple. Highly recommend applying. The technical interview was amazing, and the interviewer was very understanding if i did not get the answer.
