Question 1
I was asked about my electronics background though I was interviewing for software role
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Rivian (Palo Alto, CA) in May 2021
Interview
It was thorough and concise with many pertinent questions. I felt my answers were received well which led to a discussion about other scenarios. I felt very at ease and comfortable.

Question 1
How I could use my past experience to aid in the current lab situation
I applied online. I interviewed at Rivian (Los Angeles, CA) in May 2021
Interview
Was told that they are only hiring to "woke" standards and that positions will stay unfilled even if qualified candidates apply but aren't..."right" for optics. Good luck with that.
Easy enough interview but as others have said the employees seem to have very little experience in automotive lifestyle. Clearly just happy they are there, not sure how they got in, and no understanding of the larger automotive world. Then like so many, ghosted.
