I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at SpaceX (Boca Chica and Medford Colonia, TX) in Apr 2024
Interview
Had one phone interview. Interviewer didn't know much about the position and it sounded like the job assignment would be extremely fluid. Interviewer said they had 7 different bosses in the past 6 months. Extreme turnover. They reached out to schedule a technical interview with me, and I gave them my availability then never heard back.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Are you willing to work on things outside your expertise?
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
