I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Tesla (Hayward, CA) in Jun 2024
Interview
Intense, grueling but intelligent. Not a single behavioral question, only technical questions through and through. 5 hours of interviews after a technical presentation that I had to make. No feedback was provided about the presentation but a few questions were asked.
Three part process, with a phone screen and take home. Talked with two engineers and hiring manager. Lots of physics questions and overview on projects done. Many steps and overall good experience.
