I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at SpaceX in Jul 2023
Interview
Initially had a recruiter phone call, which just had standard job fit questions. I was then sent an Online Assessment, which I completed and scored 100% on. The recruiter reached out and confirmed I would be progressing to the next round, and to await next steps. I was then ghosted for two months, and finally received a message from the recruiter (after multiple follow-up emails on my side) to schedule my interview. No confirmation was sent for another month. By the time I finally got to get interviewed, the interviewer was nice enough. However, it felt more like a pop quiz on CS trivia rather than something that was aimed to test my problem solving and technical skills.
coding assessment including DSP related topics, take home with test cases. full test had unknown test cases that were extensions of given tests. Also included phone technical interview, coding fundamentals and RF topics
Applied online has two round. First being an phone call with recruiter and the second being online with a team of engineer asked about my previous experience and then had a short coding leetcode style question
