the procedure was very messy and the interviewer was rude. they messed up the interview process several times. over weeks, they keep postponing or the interviewer did not appear as scheduled. they did not even bother to apologize.

The interview process for the Robotics Engineer role at Tesla started with two online coding rounds in C++, focused on LeetCode-style algorithmic problems. The questions tested my knowledge of data structures, algorithms, and optimization. After passing the coding rounds, I was invited for an on-site interview, beginning with a resume review where I discussed past projects and technical details. I then tackled an applied robotics problem, where I had to break it down and propose a solution. A math problem tested my understanding of robotics-related math, like linear algebra and calculus. Finally, I worked through toy problems, explaining, implementing, and testing solutions. Throughout, Tesla assessed my technical skills, problem-solving, and communication abilities. It was a challenging but rewarding experience.

4 round interview, last round was 7 hour panel interview. phone screening, hiring manager, team, panel and paper questions. Be sure you present how personally instrumental you have been in previous project outcomes, especially those you are most proud of.
