Tesla is hiring
Thought I'd pass this along. Tesla is hiring and since many of you live in the Bay Area this might be an ideal opportunity for full time work. The recruiter's name is Olga Ocon - oocon@teslamotors.com. I do not know her personally but a former colleague of mine is friends with her. Please contact her directly as I do not have info on the positions. Good Luck.

LOL, a friend of mine just applied there and they said he was overqualified. Translation = you cost too much.

Sorry to hear that. I don't work for Tesla, (my nephew does) and I saw that they are hiring thus the post. I can't advise on salary negotiations but the recruiter indicated $17/hr.

Yeah... I got low balled for an analyst position. It was $15/hour, but this was through a recruiter, so maybe they were just trying to come up hard.

8 hours doesn't seem like the norm for any desk job anymore. I went from pushing 60 hours a week to 45 now, though.

I'm sure someone who's been out of work for a long time will find this perfectly acceptable. if you have something better lined that, that's great.

If I couldn't find anything, and this was offered to me, I'd grab it in a heartbeat. You can ALWAYS find something better later.
