J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 6 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez SpaceX (Hawthorne, CA) en févr. 2025
Entretien
Applied in nov 2024 for entry-level role. 3 phone calls, one with recruiter, one with engineering team lead, one with director. After the 3rd interview they had me fly out for an onsite interview and prepare a 30 min presentation, followed by 1-on-1s. in the first 1-1 they gave me a written test. I did badly on the test and they sent me home early. Communication was slow throughout the process, and the entire process took ~6 weeks from when the recruiter first reached out, which was a month after I applied. Onsite and in interviews, it felt like the interviewers were disengaged with the process and didn't want me there, so it was odd to move forward so far.
Questions d'entretien [5]
Question 1
rank aluminum, steel, titanium, carbon fiber from high to low for strength -weight ratio, and density
Math questions pertaining to a spring-mass system. Explain how tuning parameters like mass, wire size, coil diameter, and spring length impact the resonant modes
General written fundamentals questions, including bean bending formulas, piston forces, mechanical analysis of CAD screenshot, and more. Content wasn't difficult, but there wasn't enough time to get through everything in detail (3 pages in 10 minutes)
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.

Technical interview, pretty simple beam questions. Interview with lead engineer was about different machining/bonding techniques. Not a bad process. The recruiter was pretty responsive. Did not get another interview after interview with lead.
