Looking for candidates who have fulfilled Test Operator roles and have Troubleshooting / Diagnostic Experience and Computer Science backgrounds.
Driving experience / T1 / T2 level requiredCandidate struggled to answer many questions during the call as he was really distractedHis answers were too general, and the team wasn't confident in him passing T2.Driving Certification - T1 / T2 Training :
Ideally, candidates should be T1 / T2 certified, but we can submit If a candidate has passed a driving certification and driven on a racetrack at another OEM supplier (Waymo, Tesla, etc.) they will just need to take the T1 training at MB. The B1 / B2 certifications from BMW are similar to the T1 / T2. The driving test is really intense physically and mentally. Candidates will be asked to do "Fast & Furious" type maneuvers with the vehicles : Going 0 to 100 as quickly as possible, slamming on breaks, avoiding objects at high speed, racetrack drifting, etc. We've had previous candidates go practice at racetracks or at least look up T2 YouTube videos so they know exactly what they're getting themselves into. The prep material is attached under 'files,' and the last page has a video link.
