I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla (San Jose, CA) in Jan 2020
Interview
Was given a phone interview followed by a programming test. This was followed with an in person interview lasting several hours. Overall good experience, was interesting to see how automated the factory floor is.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Tesla (Berlin) in Nov 2025
Interview
so unprepared interviewer at one time he just disappeared, he asked a lot of easy basic questions which everyone can answer with ai help. he also didnt have a camera….
The recruiter asked about my background, with no technical questions and only one behavioral. He mentioned he would meet with the team to review and discuss shortlisted applicants before deciding who moves forward in the interview process.
