Clean shop, located in the peninsula.
Constant micromanaging, constant changing directions while doing the projects, and lack of bandwidth to complete tasks.

Tesla Interview Questions
Tesla Interview Experiences
Embedded Software Engineer Intern
It was good. My interviewer asked basic EE and DSA questions. Make sure to prepare your fundamental concepts well, as they will ask conceptual questions. However, interviews at Tesla are very team-dependent.
Firmware Engineer
Coding Challenge. Mostly low-level basics. I might have goofed it, but it shouldn't be too bad for y'all. The recruiter wasn't super responsive, unfortunately, so I had to take another offer. Just be aware that they may take a bit.
Battery Engineering Intern
A 30-minute technical interview with a battery engineering manager. We jumped right into technical questions where I had to draw free body diagrams and explain my thought process. Topics included the shear and bending moment of a beam.
