I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla (Fremont, CA) in Feb 2014
Interview
To be hired as a technician, I had phone screen interview with HR. Then I had another phone interview with a supervisor. I was invited to Fremont Office for onsite interview with the group interested in hiring me. Hiring manager asked technical, behavioral, analytical, and problem solving questions. Two engineers asked technical questions and brain teasers. Three technicians asked behavioral questions.
