I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla (Palo Alto, CA) in Sept 2018
Interview
Horrible interview process. I was contacted by a recruiter and a phone interview was set up the following day. I spoke to a Staff Engineer at Tesla who told me he enjoyed our conversation and would send out a coding test for me within the next few days. I never heard back so I checked in with the recruiter for updates but didn't receive any. I didn't hear back for another week so I checked in again and my recruiter responded with a rejection email.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was asked about web development including cookies, user authentication, data hashing, security etc.
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?
