I applied online. I interviewed at SpaceX (Redmond, WA) in July 2020
Interview
3 interviews progressively getting more specific. The last interview was a powerpoint presentation on the most complex project I have worked on. The other two interviews are mainly questions about the projects you've worked on and why you want to work at SpaceX.
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.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
If you applied a point load on a beam at the end, at which point does the beam experience the highest stress?
