Tesla loves to invest in the personal growth of its employees. Talk to the interviewer about the career path you would like to see with Tesla. Share why you want a career in the auto industry and how this position will help you get there. Be positive when speaking about your future. Be excited about the possibilities. To quote Elon Musk, "If you get up in the morning and think the future is going to be better, it is a bright day. Otherwise, it's not." Consider this advice, and go into this interview with the confidence that you will win this position and go far within the company while remaining humble.
