Was reached out by a recruiter then had two follow up interviews that were more technical with an engineer then the hiring boss, the final interview was a presentation, process is quick and interviews are within 2 days of each other
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe the design differences found in making a stiff structure and a structure where the primary design goal is strength
I applied online. I interviewed at SpaceX (Brownsville, TX)
Interview
Asked technical questions regarding basic college engineering fundamentals, asked engineering portfolio questions regarding previous internship and project experiences, and asked hypotheticals based on what areas were owned on those projects.
First was with a lead engineer (technical), then with a recruiter (behavioral), then with another lead engineer (technical), future would have been on site. It was a very accelerated timeline and fast process.
Multiple rounds of interviews ending with an all day onsite interview. Asked questions about background, classic textbook problems, and coworker interactions. Very technical and difficult. Lots of time spent trying to understand your thought process
