I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Lucid Motors
Interview
I got a phone call from recruiter and she setup an interview with a senior engineer. One of the worst ever interviews i have ever attended. All the interviewer did is to ask only what she know rather than what you know. If you want to ask something else than what i have experience in then why will you even call for an interview. I wrote an email to HR and said never ever call me for interview nor i will apply for such a company who doesn't even respect person's experience. Worst company, worst pay and worst interview process. She once even said "You dont even know this at least". I said can i ask questions from my experience, let me see if you can answer.

Other Senior Engineer interview reviews for Lucid Motors
First round touch point with HR, a second with the hiring manager, and did not make it to the panel interview. Overall I'm extremely disappointed in the interview process at Lucid. The hiring manager for this position was not experienced in the position they were hiring for and was unable to accurately judge the skill sets needed. Many of the questions asked were outside of the scope of the position and not included on the job posting.

Three steps in the process - a call with the recruiter, a call with the hiring manager, and a panel round, where you need to make a presentation. The whole process took ~3 weeks

I applied online. I interviewed at Lucid Motors (Jeddah) in Oct 2025
Interview
Interview process was smooth
The challenge was the timing management of the interview itself because I have been interviewed by some of US based managers.
The interview consisted of 3 stages the first was screening by HR from US
The second was technical by a manager from KSA
And the last was a panel interview mixed between US & KSA.
