Tesla Interview

is it typical to be reached out by a recruiter and then not hear back from them after a long while? got reached out for an engineering position and emailed promptly and havent heard back in a month. guess ill give up now๐Ÿ˜•

Yep. Lots of sub par recruiters, especially at the earlier stages.

Kinda sucks. Been waiting for a while and boom nothing

Try to send a follow up, I was going back and forth with my Tesla recruiter since November. Sheโ€™s great tho, probably the best recruiter Iโ€™ve dealt with, and I got an offer :)

Trust me, I have. Iโ€™ve sent 2 already. Very light worded email just to show interest but they havenโ€™t responded

Do you have a direct phone number? I would call them if it is to leave a voicemail. If you donโ€™t hear back after that, then move on.

I feel like if I call Iโ€™ll be pushing my luck

Tesla ghosted me after my onsite. 2 weeks now. I went through 9 rounds, 1+ month of interviewing. No calls, no emails, no follow-up

I heard Tesla does that as they interview multiple candidates simultaneously. Did you receive any update from them later on?

Recruiter at Tesla contacted my friend last week with some basic interest and work authorization related questions. He replied promptly. And itโ€™s been a week and the recruiter didnโ€™t reply yet.
