Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Behavioral and Basic Technical Questions. Process is so lengthy and stressful. They do not have good process defined. They can ask random questions. It does not matter how much you read and give best in the interview, they reject the candidate all the time. Recruiters are very slow in reply. Tesla should respect the candidate. Overall negative experience on selection process.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla (Palo Alto, CA)
Interview
The recruitment process was very standard. starter call, screening calls and on-site. I didn't make it to onsite. Positive experience through out the process. No hold up, every questions answered clearly.
