      Software Engineer Interview

      18 Jul 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla in Apr 2018

      Interview

      Very pathetic experience I had. I was reached out for the position by the recruiter only. Then he scheduled for 30 mins of call for discussing about the position. After one week one round of technical interview was scheduled. I cleared that and also cleared the online Java test. The next round was on-site interview. The recruiter introduced a new recruiter and told me that new recruiter will manage going forward for on-site interview. Two weeks passed and then I came to know that position is no longer exist and someone from internal team will fill up that. Unnecessarily wasted my time.

      Software Engineer Interview

      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      I interviewed at Tesla

      Interview

      Remembering the coding question about finding a peak element gives me a sense of relief. It was nearly the same as one I had practiced on PracHub a few days prior. The interview process began with a recruiter screening my resume, followed by a technical phone interview where we discussed data structures and algorithms. The onsite included two additional rounds focusing on coding and behavioral questions. Overall, the experience was straightforward, and I felt well-prepared, ultimately leading to an offer that I happily accepted.
