I came across this wild article about a dude who applied for a job at Tesla and chronicled his entire experience. It was a really fascinating read. Basically, he did everything he could to make himself stand out and get noticed by the hiring team. He made a video application that showcased his skills, researched the company inside and out, and relentlessly followed up with his contacts at Tesla. In the end, he didn’t get the job, but he learned a lot and gained valuable insights about the hiring process at a company as competitive and innovative as Tesla.
Reading about this guy’s experience reminded me of when I was applying for jobs and would do everything in my power to stand out from the crowd. I once crafted a ridiculous cover letter that compared my passion for marketing to my obsession with collecting vintage vinyl records. I thought it was hilarious and would surely get noticed. In retrospect, I don’t think it made much of an impact, but it was definitely a learning experience.
Anyway, back to the article. It was interesting to see how the author navigated the ups and downs of the job application process at Tesla. He really went above and beyond to impress the hiring team and showed just how competitive it is to get a job there. What I appreciated most was how he shared his failures as well as his successes, which made the whole thing feel more relatable.
Ultimately, I think this article is important for anyone who is looking for a job or considering a career change. It sheds light on what it’s like to apply for a job at a company that is at the forefront of innovation and pushing boundaries. It also highlights the importance of being persistent, putting in the work, and not being discouraged by setbacks. All in all, a great read for anyone looking to up their job application game!
