I applied online. I interviewed at Tesla (Fremont, CA) in Oct 2015
Interview
Phone screen recruiter made appt and called, discussed role for about 30 mins then would wait for manager feedback to go forward if approved. Did not hear back from recruiter, followed up without explicit no or yes, just faded out.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla (Fremont, CA) in Feb 2019
Interview
Great interview process, short and sweet. Reached out to recruiter about opportunity and was contacted for a phone interview with the recruiter. Recruiter asked basic questions about my background. I was then setup for a phone interview with the Manager who asked me questions about my background and told me more about the team. Ultimately I did not get the position but it was an overall great experience and very respectful.
