I submitted my resume at the Tesla Motors Career Fair in Fremont in November 2013.
I had a nice talk there.
About two weeks later, I got an email from the team manager to schedule a phone interview.
The phone call was great and detailed, and then I received an invitation for an onsite interview one week later.
I flew to HQ and had the onsite.
I made a 30-minute presentation and had five 1-on-1 interviews, each lasting 45 minutes.
Afterward, I went home and answered two questions for Elon's review.
Two days later, I was offered the job!
