      Production Associate Interview

      6 Jul 2017
      Anonymous employee
      Fremont, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla (Fremont, CA) in Jun 2017

      Interview

      Must first take and pass the personality assessment test, immediately after if you pass than you're selected to do an interview. They ask the normal basic questions. "Name a time when" the killer question is "what do you know about Tesla" DO YOUR HOMEWORK. "Do you know about our CEO" DO YOUR HOMEWORK. If you pass that you go straight to background information to submit a background check. I heard from them 3 days later to set up a drug screening test, STUDY FOR IT (kidding) 2 weeks later I found out that I passed both the background and drug test, you then have a physical exam. Pretty much normal exercise to make sure you can actually do the job. 2 weeks later I was told I had passed and would be contacted. My first interview was June 2nd, my first day will be here on July 10th. Don't wait on it, have another gig

      The interview Process was not all that difficult. It was pretty straightforward and easy. My interview was over the phone since it was barely post COVID. It wasn't as nerve wrecking as it would have been if it were in person
