I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla
Interview
This was without a doubt, the worst interview process I've ever gone through. I first applied through a recruiter, and after looking at my resume told me that he'd like to set up a time to speak on the phone. A day later, instead of calling me, he sent me an email that the team thought my background and experience were perfect for the role. So he just sent me a coding challenge to do. This was a 4-hour open ended challenge.
After submitting it, I did not hear anything for a week. I emailed, then emailed again a few days later. After 2 WEEKS, they email me back. In this email, they never once reference the challenge I did. In fact, all they say is that my "background" is not fit for the role. Basically, I was strung along and I don't think they even read over the challenge that took me 4 hours to complete.
Remembering the coding question about finding a peak element gives me a sense of relief. It was nearly the same as one I had practiced on PracHub a few days prior. The interview process began with a recruiter screening my resume, followed by a technical phone interview where we discussed data structures and algorithms. The onsite included two additional rounds focusing on coding and behavioral questions. Overall, the experience was straightforward, and I felt well-prepared, ultimately leading to an offer that I happily accepted.
2 Technical Coding Screen, followed by onsite. Interesting problems and role related. Friendly recruiting coordinator. On site - in person, several rounds, includes presentation and question & answers. Highly role related and based on past experiences.
pretty chill. asked about evaluation metrics, calculate 2 metrics given a data log. has_collided, radial TTC. A few questions from my resume. How did you determine xyz, what are the factors, and what could be some other factors?
