I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Tesla in Aug 2022
Interview
1 phone screen with recruiter 1 phone call with hiring manager 1 take home coding exercise (3 months of Tesla hiring freeze) Another call with recruiter Another call with new hiring manager since previous one quit Another prospective call with someone on team Overall, I had a very bad experience. It started out well, but then towards the end, the recruiter blamed me for missing an interview that they only confirmed with 2 hours of anticipation during the work day. This was after 4 previous interviews and one take-home assignment, all of which were on time or early. Further, I even waited through Tesla's most recent hiring freeze. Not to mention, I was previous intern with great reviews. The hiring manager refused to reschedule a call, refused to provide me a direct contact to the hiring manager, and then ghosted me. I was very disappointed in this unprofessional experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Take home coding exercise involved traversing a CSV file, processing rows, and producing a new CSV with processed results. They offered the liberty to choose your programming language. Calls with recruiter was mainly about interests and logistics. Calls with hiring managers were about interests and past experiences.
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?
