Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 2 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela Tesla (Palo Alto, CA) em abr. de 2014
Entrevista
3 Phone Interviews with HR and 2 Technical Phone Interviews with Mechanical Engineers on the team I would be working with. I never went in for an in-person interview. HR interviews were basic questions about previous work experience and background. Technical interviews dove deeper into past projects and asked a few technical questions related to past projects I had work on. Overall the process was simple and straight forward. There were no trick questions or surprises.

Asked how the strength to weight ratio of aluminum and steel compared.
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

Pergunta 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.
