Senior Engineer Interview Experience - United States

July 1, 2022
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

A recruiter found me and asked if I was interested.

I had a screening interview with the recruiter.

Next, I was set up for a one-hour hiring manager interview.

Following that, I had a one-on-one technical test interview.

Next was a presentation interview with about half a dozen people.

After that, there was a series of interviews, mostly on-the-spot technical interviews with multiple people all day long.

This entire process took one month.

Then, there was a one-month waiting period until I received a decision.

It was a grinding and drawn-out process that offered very little in return. I would not repeat this.

Questions

Why Tesla?

Numerous questions, all over the map, many of them technical that did not have much to do with the requirements of the role.
