Job Description

University Recruiting at Tesla

The University Recruiting team is driven by the passion to recognize the world's best talent. We build internship and co-op experiences that speak to the core fundamental areas of our business: Manufacturing, Energy, and Technology. Tesla's mission is to accelerate the world's transition to sustainable energy. Our team's mission is to fuel the early carer talent that achieves this. We support three annual programs (internships and co-ops) across all parts of the organization.

Scouting

We travel around the world to conferences, events, and campuses sharing our story. This team is at the front line, giving presentations, hosting social engagements, and identifying the best of the best. The next student you meet could innovate how Tesla optimizes the production at our factories, influences how humans interact with technology, or creates an opportunity for how the world views sustainable energy. It is our responsibility to bring a culture of diverse backgrounds and different views of innovation to Tesla.

Recruiting

We look for genuine, talented, passionate individuals to join our program. Tesla has an incredible story, and incredible stories are what generates the human energy in this organization. Across the company, executives and leaders depend on our insight and expertise for what type of individuals bring value to their teams. We're constantly communicating, both internally and externally, on how to discover, identify, and hire the right problem solvers.

Developing

From campus to office, the University Recruiting team stays engaged with our students through the entire duration of their experience. We design, build, and implement programs to elevate individuals and encourage bold actions. Interns at Tesla are like nowhere else. We coach and mentor our students to lean in with solutions, not problems. Programs are designed like a roadmap with a choose your own adventure approach. Each student has a different story, and we're here to help them find their own path.

Converting

The core of our university program is the opportunity to memorialize the work and effort for years to come. We want all students to be successful and continue their path with Tesla. The legacy of this organization starts with us.
