I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Tesla (Sparks, NV) in Jun 2018

At first there was a phone interview with a Sr. Design Engineer that worked for the manufacturing group. After that, an on-site, 25 minute presentation of a project I worked on was required.
