I applied online. I interviewed at SpaceX (Hawthorne, CA)
Interview
First interview. When interested the recruiter finds the application quickly after applying. Behavioral on phone interview with technical recruiter where the topic was mostly about my projects and some general description of them.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Name a project which you completed and describe it.
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
Rigorous but fairly reasonable in my experience. The technical problems often has a twist but if you have strong fundamentals you should be able to perform well. The recruiter and interviewers I interacted with are all very nice people.
4 rounds, 1 with technical recruiter, 1 with engineer, 1 with manager, and onsite. first 3 are over the phone. onsite was the challenge, consists of presentation, one-on-ones, and tour.
