Interview
Had 2 telephone interview. Was invited for an open house in Melbourne. Well it was actually a booze party for the recruitment team. So please don't get fooled. The actual candidates were already selected. Cause they were wearing a green badge given by tesla. The interview process is a joke. Very poor leadership n immature recruitment team.

It was smooth.
Asked about my experiences and visa requirements.
Questions: Tell me about yourself.
What are your achievements?
What is the skill you want to improve?
