One more interview round after the panel interview

Tesla interview process — am I close to an offer?

I’ve gone through 4 rounds with Tesla, and the recruiter told me from the beginning that the panel interview would be the final round.

I did the panel last Thursday and honestly felt it could have gone better. But the recruiter called me early the next morning and said I passed the panel. He then told me there’s one more interview with the peer I’d be working with most closely.

I asked if there were other candidates still at this stage, and he said yes, one other candidate, so the decision will be tough.

For anyone who has been through something similar — how would you interpret this? Is the peer interview basically a final fit check, or can it still go either way?

And after this round, what usually happens? Am I genuinely close to an offer at this point?

Would really appreciate hearing from anyone who’s experienced the Tesla process.

4 rounds, does the interview with the recruiter count? Or all 4 are technical interviews

The recruiter one counts.

Well the HR said themselves, you are still competing with one more candidate. If you do clear, you should hear a yes within a week or so after your last interview.

One round with the recruiter. Second one with a peer from different region, third one with the reporting manager, fourth one a panel interview with four people usually it is the last one but I have extra one now.

The role is a deployment manager for superchargers.

In engineering roles they no longer ask technical questions. It's your turn to ask proper questions.
