I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla (Amsterdam) in Jun 2021
Interview
Long process and poor feedback. Applied via referral. 3 weeks to hear back. After first interview no feedback. After another 2/3 weeks I called recruiter and did not pick up his phone. I sent an email asking about status of my application. After that I got an automatic rejection stating that they found a better candidate. However, they keep posting the job on linkedIN so I doubt that they found another candidate. I would have expected a more transparent treatment.

Question 1
Standard questions about experience and skill related to the job.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Tesla (Palo Alto, CA) in Mar 2026
Interview
3 30 min remote interviews, 1 30min presentation about one thing you have done and 6 30 min interviews on site. A very long process that makes it difficult to follow
First round online interview with the hiring manager. Then onsite panel interview with five interviewers in the team. The online and in-person one both are technical. HR is not efficient. Every other employees seem to be pretty professional!

Multiple interview stages, the recruiters and hiring managers lack professional.
I got first video interview rescheduled 3 times not because of me because the hiring manager kept forgetting and missing about the interview.
This isn't the first time I interviewed for Tesla, same thing happened again when I interviewed for them 2 years ago for another position.
