Manufacturing Engineer Interview Experience - Palo Alto, California
Process
I had three telephone interviews: the first with HR, and the second and third with engineering managers. After the initial screening process, I was asked to come to Palo Alto for a full-day interview. The interview process was quite rigorous, with individual interviews and one final group interview.
Lots of questions focused on exactly what I was doing in my previous job and why I have to offer Tesla. I was asked, "Why Tesla?" and "How can I do my job differently at Tesla?"
