Was contacted for a phone screening which went well and was followed up by another phone interview with the hiring manager. I came on site for the final interview/presentation and did not hear back for weeks when they told me they would get back by the end of the week. After following up and informing them about another offer deadline, I still didn't hear back. My emails were ignored until the manager eventually called and told me they weren't moving forward. Very unprofessional.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at SpaceX (Los Angeles, CA) in Apr 2025
Interview
Three rounds total. The SpaceX interview process is rigorous, involving multiple stages: initial screening, technical interviews, problem-solving assessments, and panel interviews, all designed to evaluate technical expertise, innovation, and cultural fit.
I applied online. I interviewed at SpaceX (Redmond, WA)
Interview
Was asked to submit a document with 3-5 of the biggest accomplishments you’ve contributed to. Seems odd considering you can ask via interview vs write an essay. Interview loops consisted of a 2:1 interviewer to candidate ratio. Slightly intimidating/uncomfortable

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at SpaceX in July 2023
Interview
Recruiter conversation Ops interviewe onsite interviewers were unprepared for an interview and clearly did not respect candidate time. most were late, most seemed uninterested, some showed zero respect for their employees. Id highly recommend against spending your time with this company.
