Engineers from across Mexico streamed into Monterrey for a chance of a job with the U.S. electric vehicle maker Tesla Inc which is looking south of the border for talent. Scheduled interviews with a number of candidates on Friday and was slated to screen other prospective employees over the weekend at the closed-door event.

We don’t need no stinkin’ batteries.
So Tesla has a problem hiring American’s to work in America.
Got it.
But no problem using US Taxpayer dollars to do so...
If it cannot hire AMERICAN it does not need our TAX money.
This is a slap in the face of American workers. Why the preference for Mexicans? Tesla is anti American.
I guess, Tesla tried to hire American Engineers however all the American Engineers had jobs and so it is okay with Tesla to hire out of the H1B visa program.
I can see them now, but we tried to hire American. We didn’t find any American Engineers with the right skills and experience for the job. We need to expand our search to Mexico and beyond.

Exactly. Remove all federal funding for Tesla, including Space X.
And if they fail as engineers, they can always work on the assembly line.
Or cut their hiring manager’s lawn.
Three years ago in Fremont California Tesla was designing a new body assembly plant:
they hired one H-1B guy, a Croatian, to help design that facility; not to sweep up and it not to wash the windows, but to DESIGN the facility.
it turned out he was being paid **$5 per hour and he was working over $70 70 hours per hour** for design work.
he fell from high location was injured and they were trying to hustle him out of the country when all of this came out.
Mexican engineers? LOLOLOL From that dump?
70 hours per week, I meant.
sorry I was using voice transcription.
I thought working for a mid-western based sweatshop electronics recycling/resller was bad......
While Tesla is a wretched company with zero principles, I will say there are plenty of very brilliant engineers in Mexico and Latin America.
I’ve met quite a few of them. We’re not talking moochers and MS-13 types.
Is a Mexican engineer kind of like an Italian engineer?
Did they go back home or are they all still here illegally? At least we have their IDs to track them down... unless they’re stolen.
Wouldn’t bet much on a low rider Tesla selling well.
Why not look to Europe? Why Mexico? What about Canada or AU or NZ? We need less Mexicans in CA not more.
I agree with your premise - absolutely.
I was just pointing out you’re not getting trash if you hire good engineers from Mexico or South America.
