I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla (Fremont, CA) in Mar 2024
Interview
Very technical and never really asked why I wanted to work there or given much information about the specific role. Process looked like 2 technical interviews for me. The first was simple fundamentals while the second went deeper into my past projects with harder technical questions. Had to explain all my engineering decisions.
