Process
I was referred by someone who works at Tesla.
I had two phone interviews before going on-site for a full-day interview, where I spoke with the entire team.
The interview process was long. The HR department experienced delays and had time management issues. The interview also required preparing a presentation about a project I had completed.
Questions
Different personal, behavioural, and some basic technical questions.
