Process
I got this interview by referral, and there are two technical interviews via Microsoft Teams.
One is 45 minutes long, and the other is 30 minutes long.
The interviews take two weeks in total.
Questions
Both focused on my research experience with electrochemical measurements. They also asked behavioral questions, such as "Why Tesla?" and "Why are you interested in this team?"
