Recruter called and connected me over Linkedin, had a online coding test, then followed by speaking to some of the team and finally onsite interview. People are very friendly. Post onsite got a call from HR that they are will to proceed further and he told it will take a week to get approvals. Post that it has been 3 weeks and did't have any followup and no replies to email from HR on any updates(Big No).
I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Tesla (Fremont, CA) in May 2017
Interview
At beginning, first interviewer didn't have my resume, not even in his computer... took 5-10 min to setup wifi and send resume from MY computer again...
The second interviewer asked a lot of questions in quick pace, if you are not very familiar with the tech question, he seemed like look down on you, doubt you.
I know it might be common in many interviews, but still very comfortable.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Tesla (Palo Alto, CA)
Interview
Began with typical phone screens with recruiters and engineers. Had a coding challenge that was extremely simple. Moved into an onsite that was primarily focused on tech and some process.
