      Purchasing Coordinator Interview

      24 Aug 2020
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at SpaceX (Hawthorne, CA) in Apr 2018

      Interview

      Contacted by a recruiter for the Purchasing Coordinator position. Scheduled a 30 min phone interview with the hiring manager a few days later and then an on-site interview a week after that. On-site interview was about 2.5 hours and consisted of a panel interview and several one-on-one interviews. Overall everyone was enthusiastic and engaging. About 2 weeks later I emailed the recruiter to find out I was not selected based on lack of experience.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Q: Tell us how your background and experience in a different industry relates to aerospace manufacturing.
      Answer question
      2

      I applied online. I interviewed at SpaceX in Apr 2019

      Interview

      My Interview consisted of 6-7 Phone/Video interviews. They started off simple and got progressively harder. Mostly Resume based at the beginning, and towards the end there were more hypothetical "what if you were in X Situation" questions. It was clear that they wanted to bring someone in that knew and was passionate about SpaceX's history, overall mission, and future plans. General enthusiasm about the aerospace industry and space exploration was a huge plus.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell me about time in which you felt completely lost on a project/assignment, how did you find the information you needed and how did you get back on track?

      Purchasing Coordinator Interview

      20 July 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Los Angeles, CA
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 12 months. I interviewed at SpaceX (Los Angeles, CA) in Apr 2017

      Interview

      I did not go far with the interview process; however, it was professional - they go through your resume/online application, and if you are a recent grad, they definitely give you a chance, which is nice! I got a phone interview and then a typing test but I scored a little lower than desired - so I did not get an offer

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell me about yourself A few questions related to customer service, purchasing, coordination etc.
