“Tesla has taken its recruiting of Apple employees to the next level: the electric car and energy company has hired away Apple’s Senior Director of Corporate Recruiting, Cindy Nicola, to become Tesla’s new Vice President of Global Recruiting,” Mark Gurman reports for 9to5Mac. “Nicola has already noted her now role and start month of May on her LinkedIn profile.”
“Notably, Apple actually hired away Tesla’s Lead Recruiter in 2014 for its own electric car project, as we noted in our extensive profile of Apple’s automotive related hires,” Gurman reports “Interestingly, that former Tesla recruiter Lauren Ciminera has already left Apple to work on a new ‘confidential’ project, according to her own LinkedIn page and confirmation from a source.”
MacDailyNews Take: Nicola works for Tesla. Funny!
The recruiting war between Apple and Tesla continues.

We be not trollin’
You be bot trollin’
Stooge.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Here’s the proof positive for all MDN readers:
GM is the 1 star censoring BOT TROLL.
Hated by all here and embittered by rebuke, he used the same logic and judgement of posts by all he argued with, as the 1 star voting troll.
If you look back in archives you will all see that, word for word.
When he really wanted to drive his points home, he up voted them with blitzes of 5 star votes, in a similar troll Bot fashion. He spent many arguments that way.
Last night, he waited till after dark, to down vote all the 5 stars on the above feedback that called him out.
Go Home GM, give it up.
Within less than an hour of posting this, he’s still at it knocking down the two 5 star ratings this post had.
All the attention to this personal GM expose, is very telling.
No one give a flying suck about GM that much, to vote so many times on a personal post, in the back pages.
GM we know where you are, GIVE IT UP asshole.
As much as I’d love to own a Tesla, I guess I’ll settle for an Apple Watch… and an iPhone, an iPad, and iMac, an Apple TV… sigh…
These two companies should just figure out the purchasing price that Apple needs to come to the table with to purchase Tesla……..or get a room.
Purchase and then SHUTTER them..
This would not have happened when SJ was around. Cue the “fire Tim Cook” comments. 😉
Does anyone else find it hard to believe the recruiters name is Nicola??? Sounds like BS to me.
Nicola should go work for Ricola. *cough*
Sounds like both companies ought to stop hiring women; disloyal and can’t be trusted.
Oh go make us a cuppa Achmed. 2 sugars please.
Oh. The Ironing!
Tesla should hire former Apple Chief Scientist Larry Tesler.
See… this is why Steve and Eric made their little deal. This is chaos. How much gets done with the revolving doors spinning at this rate? I *Do* like the Nicola Tesla connection.
I do hope she signs her e-mails “Nicola@Tesla”
I’d love to get that car.
Oh wait a minute, I do have that car!
But I’d trade it in a blink of an eye for anything Apple came out with.
