Any guess what the compensation is like for these positions ?
If you get rejected just edit 10 words on your resume and then resubmit. Do this a 100hz and you'll get in eventually :)
Less than Uber, but more than Waymo, who is only offering ~$20k-ish stock packages like a late start-up who expects to 10x. Depends on how you value Tesla stock, though. See levels.fyi
I know people at both Tesla and Waymo, and Tesla does not pay as well as Waymo.
levels.fyi suggests Tesla pays higher total compensation given that the stock is liquid. The Tesla salaries posted there are less than what I’ve seen in Waymo offers, but having liquid equity is a major differentiator in this case. A Waymo IPO could be 5 years off.
lol i just did the interview and failed. had to find shortest path between tesla chargers. all in C++. completed it but failed
you were supposed to bore a tunnel directly between the two points
jeez, trick question
Very likely not for the positions above! (they all focus on Python)
IoU
Slightly off-topic (but related to the side thread where people didn’t realize you went to Tesla): your HN about still says you’re at OpenAI :).
oops, thank you, fixed :)
As long as you’re here, I’d love to get an updated PyTorch vs TF from you in the sibling thread as payment :).
Could you have just used dijkstra or breadth first search?
How does that work? Where you given the algorithm to use? Or was it really a data science question, rather than a programming question?
Without more details it sounds like an algorithm problem you'd be expected to solve from prior knowledge. Stuff like a breadth first search from the start point, up through various path finding algorithms to applying heuristics (I believe route finding on roads exploits the road topology).
Thanks Tim!
Would love to apply, but still a student. Hoping to join in the future given how nicely orchestrated your team has been training nets.
Apply for internship. Doing well on an internship is a great way to get a foot in the door after graduation.
