I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at SpaceX in Mar 2025
Interview
The interview process was generally disjointed. I had previous experience at the company, and the team wasn't aware when they did their first screen. I did a second phone screen with Claire Hsu. It went well, with the exception of a technical question asked at the end. Though I answered the first part of the question correctly, the second part was very vague and open-ended. No parameters or conditions given.
