Tesla trusts its interns to lead large, important projects. You'll work really hard and gain experience faster than anywhere else.
Little mentorship and assistance from manager.
Interviews were first principle heavy, and candidates were expected to be able to answer questions from different domains (e.g., dynamics, controls, software testing, etc.) as the role required the engineer to cover these different areas.
The process consisted of: - A 30-minute HR call (discussing my skills, background, and interest in Tesla. No technical cross-questioning occurred in this round). - A 1-hour Resume + Coding round (discussed resume for 20 minutes; 30 minutes of LeetC
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. * HR Phone Screening. * After 1 week, 2 Round Technical. * After 2 weeks, Virtual Panel Interview with a 30 min presentation and 4 1-1 sessions. * No response after about one week.
