J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Tesla (Palo Alto, CA) en oct. 2022
Entretien
One hour interview, very technical. Questions about stress strain curves, FBD, and manufacturing techniques. Quick response after the interview, found out about the decision within a week. Interviewer was nice, gave hints and worked through the questions. However, it is a very challenging interview.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Label parts of stress-strain curve, what manufacturing technique would you use for xyz part?
Started with 2 technical rounds. First one was basic MechE questions. Second round interviewer was in a hurry and not so open to listening your thought process. There were questions on electromechanical concepts as well

Question 1
Difference in bolt torque in hot and cold conditions
The interview was extremely technical. They didn’t ask for an introduction or any background before immediately diving into solving textbook-style engineering problems. The focus was almost entirely on technical problem-solving rather than behavioral conversation or learning about my experience.
Phone screen, Technical foundations test (1 hour, 10 questions on statics, dynamics, E&M, circuits, etc. – sent as PDF and returned via email), technical interviews, on-site behavioral and technical interviews with portfolio presentation.
