I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Tesla (Fremont, CA) in Nov 2015
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter on Linkedin regarding the open position. We scheduled a phone informational interview, where I was then passed on to another recruiter.
With this new recruiter, I was told we were to speak again about the job responsibilities and my qualifications. This new recruiter canceled our appointment twice in a row without a real explanation, and less than a couple of hours in advance- quite unprofessional and a little disheartening coming from such a renowned company. It was difficult getting a response back from her and I had to follow up multiple times- about two or three each time she canceled- to schedule another meeting time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What did the previous recruiter speak to you about the job position?
Can you tell me anything about yourself that makes you qualified for the job?
It was casual and informal. I found that the managers were not very focused and seemed to lack professionalism. I'd recommend asking them more questions about the position and what it can offer you. There will be alot of sales force

Question 1
Are you willing to work beyond normal businesses hours.
The interview process was straight forward, but they were unresponsive following. I did follow up, but the recruiter did not make any effort to return my reach outs. I was kind of confused as i thought this was a pretty prompt high standard company.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked very open ended questions, pretty generic for band knowledge.
The group interview will do a lot of role-play and will ask to sell me something. They also ask open questions, like, Can you tell me about your sales experience? How do you approach generating new leads and closing deals? How do you handle rejection and what motivates you to exceed sales targets? Also, question about Tesla products.
