I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Tesla in Feb 2024
Interview
HR reached out through LinkedIn and then a quick 30 mins call with them. They wanted to proceed further with me and call a technical interview with the Manager. He was overseas and kept canceling our interview and them sent me a message saying that I need to be flexible and ready to talk any time around 7 AM or 7 PM. This is such a disrespect to my time, so politely declined that option. Never heard from them again.
