I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla in Feb 2016
Interview
I had one interview with an engineer at my school and another more technical interview over the phone. I waited about two weeks to hear back after my first interview, and about one more week after my second interview for the response to that.
Interviewer seemed to want to go home (it was in the afternoon). Some of the questions I were asked were unrealistically difficult (although maybe he was just testing to what extent I knew).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Using a chip that has an output signal of 5V, how do I control a 12V motor?
Invited me to an interview then ghosted me after I gave availability. They never scheduled the interview. When I followed up, the recruiter didn’t responded to my email. Not sure what happened
My interview was scheduled for about five days after the initial email from my recruiter. It was two 30 minute interviews with members of the prospective team. Standard questions were asked about me, my experiences, and why I think I am a good fit for the role.

Question 1
How do you respond when members of your team tell you they don’t have time for you?
1 technical interview followed by a recruiter call if you get the offer. The process was very fast and very simple. Highly recommend applying. The technical interview was amazing, and the interviewer was very understanding if i did not get the answer.
