I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at SpaceX in Apr 2021
Interview
The interview process is long. It contains an initial screening, two technical interviews, possibly another HR interview, and then a long onsite interview day. The technical interviews are difficult, especially for someone with little field experience, but with proper experience, I believe that the technical questions are doable as they revolved around problem troubleshooting.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Industry related questions relating to your background (from resume) or from previous SpaceX manufacturing problems where they are looking for distinct and intelligent solutions.
I applied online. I interviewed at SpaceX in Jun 2026
Interview
I completed the initial 20- 30-minute call. This did not have any technical questions. I provided my portfolio and explained how certain projects fit this role. I was given the next interview and set up a time at the end of this call.
Phone screen with recruiter followed by two phone calls with engineers and then an on-site interview where you present a presentation on a topic of your choice. Also other technical interviews on site as well.
Got reached out to by a recruiter on LinkedIn. Setting up an interview time was easy. The first interview screening was basically describing your past experiences. The second interview is technical. Whole process took a week.
