I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at SpaceX (Hawthorne, CA) in Jun 2022
Interview
I had a phone screening with a recruiter and then a technical phone call with two leads on the team I would be working on. The phone screening with the recruiter involved very basic interview questions regarding the reasons for leaving my current company and my interest in working for SpaceX. The technical phone call with the propulsion leads was pretty difficult. It involved giving an overview of my resume and reflecting on design and schedule decisions I made on past projects. Then they quickly jumped into technical questions related to fundamental fluid statics and fluid dynamics. I recommend reviewing what you learned in college in as much detail as possible in regards to fluid mechanics, and understand the fundamental behavior of fluids in open and closed systems.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at SpaceX
Interview
The process consisted of two phone screens, one with a hiring manager and one with a senior engineer, and an onsite interview. The first call included behavioural and technical questions and the second call was almost exclusively technical.
Good interview process got asked a lot of technical questions first interview. Interesting since I was not the major for the role. I think it is pretty interesting interview tbh i don’t know
Started with a recruiter screening with 3 technical questions, then had a 30 minute technical interview with a manager followed by a 30 minute technical interview with a director. After that got an on site interview which consisted of a 30-minute technical presentation and then 5 one-on-one technical interviews/techinical walk-and-talks with various engineers, managers, and directors.
