    Tesla, in their infinite wisdom, cut entire departments that these interns were going to be hired into, so it’s not surprising that those positions are being cut.

    It really is a feels bad for students getting shutout of an internship at a famous company, and paying moving and housing expesnes. At least they can put “too good for Tesla” on their LinkedIn bio lol.

      Which is slightly better than some places I’ve seen cut the staff and keep the interns on to run with what’s left

        How about doing interviews to assign Tesla supercharger design work as takehome tests?
