I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at SpaceX in May 2022
Interview
Recruiter called me to ask what I was interested in, then she said she would set me up with a technical interview with the propulsion lead. Call with the prop lead was about 30 min and incredibly hard. Granted, this was my first-ever technical interview and I did not know what to expect. He asked me about my experiences, and would ask questions to bring me more and more in depth. Questions were about thermo/fluid dynamics as well as structural mechanics
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A uniformly heated pipe is connected to walls on either side of the length. What failure mode(s) should you expect and where?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at SpaceX
Interview
The process consisted of two phone screens, one with a hiring manager and one with a senior engineer, and an onsite interview. The first call included behavioural and technical questions and the second call was almost exclusively technical.
Good interview process got asked a lot of technical questions first interview. Interesting since I was not the major for the role. I think it is pretty interesting interview tbh i don’t know
Started with a recruiter screening with 3 technical questions, then had a 30 minute technical interview with a manager followed by a 30 minute technical interview with a director. After that got an on site interview which consisted of a 30-minute technical presentation and then 5 one-on-one technical interviews/techinical walk-and-talks with various engineers, managers, and directors.
