Entrevista
The interview process was quite drawn out. The recruiter took a while getting back to me despite multiple teams showing interest in my profile. Scheduling the phone interview took time, but the process was smooth. There was an online assessment as an initial screen, It was challenging but doable. The phone screen itself was a pretty bad experience. Just like interviewing is a skill not everybody has, being an interviewer is also a skill not everybody has. This guy who interviewed me was a manager I think, but not all managers make good interviewers. He barely spoke, which is not what you'd expect in a phone interview. I'm going to think multiple times before interviewing for Tesla in the future.
