      Supplier Quality Engineer Interview

      Nov 25, 2013
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Fremont, CA
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla (Fremont, CA) in Oct 2013

      Interview

      I had applied through Tesla's website and got a call from the Recruiter two days later asking if I was still actively looking for a job. The recruiter set up a phone interview the next day. Mostly behavioral questions!!! We spoke for about 30-40 mins and then she set up a phone interview with the Hiring Manager Second round: This interview was technical. The Hiring Manager (Sr. SQM) asked a lot of questions from my resume and about manufacturing processes. The recruiter got back to me two days later saying the Hiring Manager was impressed and invited me for an on site interview. They are very flexible when it comes to the dates. I was able to chose when I wanted to be interviewed. Flew into San Jose on a Friday and was interviewed the next week. I was interviewed at the Fremont location. A total 7 interviews were scheduled for that day. They covered various areas. If you are a supplier quality engineer and are good at what you do, the job is yours. They are looking for high energy candidates. Very technical !!! They are going to ask you a lot of technical questions I absolutely enjoyed talking to every single person that interviewed me. Met with at least 10 people (SQE's, Sr. Supplier Quality Managers, Sourcing Directors, VP of supply chain). Very respectful, knowledgeable, smart and they all know their stuff. Overall I thought the interview was difficult. Well, I think it depends more on how much experience you have. I have 2 yrs work experience as an SQE with a company that makes Red Engines. Declined the offer due to a competing offer from a Cupertino based company.
