I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Blue Origin in Jan 2025
Interview
Recruiter call, then great interview with the HM, then recruiter reaches out to tell you you're moving on to the next step. You get an email from a separate recruiter now who you contact for the onsite, but not for actual updates? Do your interview, "hear back in 9-10 days". ghosted for a month and still waiting. Recruiters will not respond to you after you dedicate several hours to the process.
The interviewers are fantastic, the recruiters are negligent.

Question 1
Describe an example of extreme ownership over a project.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Blue Origin (Merritt Island, FL) in Jul 2026
Interview
First call with recruiter.
3 one on one interviews to see company alignment and position fit.
If there’s no position fit but company alignment, the recruiter will shop your resume around and find you a position.

Question 1
How have you used one of Blue’s values in the past?
Overall a good experience, recruiter was very warm and understanding. Intimidating and in-depth on specificities of personal experiences but understandably so, considering the skills and effort required to design and manufacture reusable launch vehicles.

Question 1
What's one project that you worked on where the application of GD&T had a large impact on?
Had a 1 call with a recruiter, who asked me about myself, and asked if i met the qualifications for the role. Then got ghosted for the 1:1s call, was never scheduled even after reaching out.
