First round interview was fine. Second round was structured very strangely–I was posed three questions at once and that was all the interviewer had to say. Never actually heard back from anyone even after following up with the recruiter to ask about the status of my application.
he recruiter initially reached out to me regarding the opportunity. I then completed two rounds of interviews with the team. At this stage, I am still waiting to hear back from them regarding next steps or a final decision.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla (Berlin) in Apr 2026
