I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla (Palo Alto, CA) in Mar 2011
Interview
Process was very long a dragged on. There was a bit of scrambling at the last minute to get people to join the interview process. This is a true testament to managers not having the opportunity to grow there team because of the demand.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How flexible are you, and are you willing to adapt to constant change.
Pretty good the interview went really well ,My core strength is my ability to collaborate effectively across teams. In my last role, I bridged gaps between marketing and sales, ensuring projects aligned with both goals. I also have strong problem-solving skills
Fast-paced, demanding interviews with deep technical grilling, real-world problem solving, cross-functional questions, and culture fit. Expect high standards, rapid iterations, ownership mindset, and emphasis on execution over theory. Technical analysis and development are the key
The interviewer was very confident but sometimes wrong! It makes no sense for him to be the one judging the next candidates. I quickly lost hope in their system and decided not to continue if that reflects the team.
