I just accepted an offer at Tesla. Ben, I can’t thank you enough for your information and helping empower folks like me to get the jobs they seek. Your videos (especially this one) helped me go into my interview(s) with confidence and ease. I researched the company, their values and related all that with my background and passion and it couldn’t have worked out better. I drilled and rehearsed the questions for days, refining my answers until they were perfect. Thank you for what you do. Cheers!

I just had my first interview. It was a 20 minute introductory call with a recruiter for an entry level electrical engineering position. She asked me to tell her about my college and internship experience and then asked why Tesla. The rest of the time was reserved for my questions and for her to go over the position. Next step is a technical exam, an interview with an engineer on the team I would be on, and then a panel of engineers.

I had an interview today, but it was for an internship. Actually got none of the questions that where in here. I was just first asked to present myself and give a personal profile, and give some examples on projects that I have done. After it, I was asked a lot of different technical questions regarding engendering topics of my career. Do note, I was contacted directly by a Sr. Engineer, so it actually doesn’t surprise me the interview went in that way. I will have a resolution two weeks from now. Wish me luck guys!

[@BenTalksTalent]

I wonder if it’s different because it’s an internship. I have had several people let me know they have gotten these questions but for full time roles. Good luck Miguel, I hope you get it!

[@Chris32351]

Same situation for me today. Also for an Intern Engineering position and directly with a Sr. Staff Eng. The only broad question I was asked was "why tesla?". I was actually hoping to be asked that because I had a lot to elaborate about it. But then the rest of the interview was totally technical, and that was like 90% of the 50 minutes conversation. Not very difficult, questions were about fundamentals, however, you need to show a clear comprehension of the subject. I got some answers right but also had a hard time in others. I'm currently waiting for their feedback. Wish me luck!

When the anchor is thrown over board, the boat will be less heavy, float higher, and displace less water (exactly equal to the anchors WEIGHT in water). When the anchor sinks into the water, it will displace exactly the anchors VOLUME in water. Because the anchor is denser than water, it was displacing more water when it was floating in the boat than when it was thrown in the ocean. Thus the water level will lower when the anchor is thrown in.

[@SomeOne-ke4fz]

What technical questions did they ask? was it leet code type questions?

[@dannydreelan9662]

The answer to the boat and anchor questions is wrong. The water level will reduce. Sure, there will be an additional volume of the anchor added to the water, but since the weight of the boat is reduced it will rise up, meaning less of the boat is below water, causing the water level to go down. The effective density of the boat is the mass of the boat + the anchor divided by the volume of displaced water. Removing the anchor will drastically change the density of the boat, causing more volume of the boat raising out of the water than the volume of the anchor. The reason is because the anchor is more dense than the water (because it sinks), so the additional volume of water displaced by the anchor is than the volume of the anchor. I've realised I need to work for Tesla lol

The anchor in the rowboat question does not make sense to me. if you had a marble that weighed 100lbs, surely it being in the boat would displace more water then the amount displaced by its volume. I think the answer would depend on the mass and volume of the object be tossed overboard.

[@BenTalksTalent]

It makes no sense to me either but for a totally different reason. It’s because I’m not an engineer and this kind of stuff is WAY outside of my comfort zone from a comprehension perspective! Sorry I can’t be more help with the answers! Now the soft skill, cultural and behavioral questions... I can do that all day!

You're wrong about the anchor and the boat the water will go down if he throws it in the water because the weight displaces more water than the volume of the anchor.

I don’t know you but I am sure you are right and I am wrong lol. I am not an engineer and probably should not have guessed! Thank you for correcting me!

[@BenTalksTalent]

Hope you liked the video other than that!

[@travelerusa69]

@@BenTalksTalent I enjoyed the video very much! I learned from it and what to expect. I searched that question because your answer didn't seem to make sense to me. I was actually on a submarine in the United States Navy for two years stationed in Norfolk, Virginia. The sub I was on went to the Mediterranean for 6 months. So I've learned a little bit about displacement. 🙂 Look it up you'll see that they explain the water will go down because let's say the anchor (while in the boat) displaces the equivalent of 100 l of water. 1 l equals one kilogram. But then when you throw it in the the tank, the volume only displaces 10 l. So then the volume would drop by 90 l in the tank. It has to do with the density of water. So whatever is denser than water would cause the tank level to go down but whatever is lighter than water would cause the level to go up. So if you were holding 10 lb of wood and then made it go inside the tank below water, then the volume displaced would weigh more than the water, because of wood is lighter than water. So the level would go up.

[@travelerusa69]

So you may want to edit that video in case you're going to shackle hundreds of people with the wrong answer, who are going to interview with Tesla get that wrong. 🙂

Grand Rising Ben, First, you are amazing, I love to hear you talk and watching your videos helped me to get excited to interview again 😊. So I came across your videos when I got an email from tesla on the 19th of August. Today is the 3rd of September and so far I have had 3 interviews with them as of yesterday. The questions I was asked were pretty standard questions On the first and second interview both people asked me about my background and told me to tell them about myself and ways that I worked through pressure. Basically, they wanted me to elaborate about hard situations i experienced at work with customers and how i worked through them and turned it around. On the second interview the manager asked me to explain how I would work through a chaotic situation. This leaves the third interview. During this one, she first told me she was an operations manager and explained to me a little bit about the work dynamic at the location I would be working at. She then opened the floor in the beginning of the interview for me to ask questions. She asked me what was a situation where I had difficulty at work. She also asked me why did I want to be a part of Tesla. Then she asked me a question that she says she always asks her interview prospects at the end and the question was "WOULD YOU RATHER DO A JOB AND MEET ITS TIMELY DEADLINE OR WOULD YOU RATHER DO A JOB CORRECTLY?" AND YOU CAN ONLY CHOOSE 1. I feel that I was always good at interviewing I am a performer and singer naturally but it's been a year-and-a-half since I've interviewed for a job and I felt a little rusty. Your interview tactics, insight and expertise have really boosted up my confidence and although most of the questions weren't in my interview I still Incorporated a lot of some of the things that you helped me to brainstorm about into the questions that they asked and that ultimately got me another interview each time. So now I'm waiting for them to either tell me if I have another interview or if I got the job. I'm pretty sure I aced it. Each interaction was awesome and I felt confident with how I did! Thanks bro 🙏 🙌 💯 💙 💪 👌 🙏

[@BenTalksTalent]

This doesn’t surprise me! I’m no engineer. Thanks for sharing!

[@ryanw.975]

I like your energy when you give a speech. that attracts audience into your topic immediately!

[@BenTalksTalent]

Thank you!

[@imchrissheldon]

Ben! Thanks to your videos I JUST got accepted to a job at Tesla! Even though this video is 2 years old it provided me with more than enough info to nail the interview!

[@mayh3mmadn3ss79]

Did you have to do a power point ?

[@blaksheepmusicgroup9856]

I wanted to express my immense gratitude to you Ben for your invaluable advice on KZbin, which played a significant role in helping me secure a job at Tesla. Your guidance has made a world of difference, and I can’t thank you enough.

[@alejandrosankaran-garcia5119]

Thanks so much for this video. It's like you gave questions before the test. I received my offer and I start soon. I cannot thank you enough. It's this video and several others that helped me land the job.

[@BenTalksTalent]

Go do great things my friend!

I have an interview with tesla tomorrow morning 🤙🏾

[@xiaomeisong3380]

I will have an internship interview next Monday, the two-round interview will be with two staff data engineers, will it seems more like two technical interviews in a roll since no hire manager? how could I get more information to prepare better within two days? should I also prepare some leet code questions during the interviews? Thank you so much if you could share your experience with me.

[@andreamolinasolis5011]

@xiaomeisong3380 Ogm, I have an interview for a summer internship data analytics position with staff data engineers tomorrow. How did your interview go ¿ and what questions did they ask ¿ did it remain similar to this video questions ¿

[@-108-]

14:58 - The answer is actually dependent on 3 things: The surface area of the row boat's hull, the weight of the anchor, and the physical size of the anchor. If the anchor was tiny, but dense and extremely heavy, the hull of the boat would sink deeper into the water, displacing more of it than if the anchor were thrown overboard. If the anchor was extremely large, but weighed very little, it would sink the hull into the water less, and displace more water after being thrown overboard. The size of the boat could effect the answer to the question though, in any case.

[@erockromulan9329]

The water level will fall and here's why. When the anchor is in the boat it is displacing it's weight worth of water. That weight worth of water is less dense than the anchor and therefore takes up more volume than the anchor. If you trade displaced water volume with the lesser displaced anchor volume by throwing the anchor overboard then the water level will fall.

Thanks!

[@BenTalksTalent]

Thank you for the Super Thanks! I hope the video helped you!

[@NTNscrub]

Hey, Ben. I know it’s been a second since you released this video, but just wanted to say thanks for the advice. I got an offer to Tesla recently and this video helped a bit. The process has somewhat changed compared to what’s described here (at least it did for the position I applied to in engineering) but this video gave me the ideas and motivation I needed to succeed. Hope you keep on making videos for potential hires in the future!

[@BenTalksTalent]

Glad to hear it my friend! And perhaps a new updated video can be made in the future!

[@Ihar_Maskevich]

Insanely good information, thank you!!!

[@BenTalksTalent]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Ihar_Maskevich]

Ben, pls advise, super inspired by Tesla's mission. How to present few years of employment gap, I paused carrer and did EXPLORATIONAL learning and built solid general Technology knowledge landscape. Elon Musk advised also on Friedman's show: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g169eWamqLqVnLc

I work two jobs and I’m in the fence about bringing that up in an interview.. would Tesla look at this as a good trait or a bad trait.. any advice would be appreciated

[@BenTalksTalent]

I think it’s a good trait. Nobody should look down on that. In the right context I’d bring it up!

[@oladipupoodutayo7080]

Thank you.

[@BenTalksTalent]

You are welcome!!!

[@mdmums]

I feel like in response to the boat in a tank with an anchor a way to demonstrate critical thinking would be to ask if the water was at the top of the tank when the anchor was thrown. As if the water is already filled to the top of the tank and you throw the anchor water will go up and out of the tank and overall the water level would lower. Just a thought.

[@BenTalksTalent]

I am out of my depth here (this is a pun but also accurate because I am not a technical person lol)
