J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé un entretien chez SpaceX (Los Angeles, CA) en nov. 2015
Entretien
I had a phone screening, and it went really well so they called me back the next day and offered me the job. I did some research about the team I was interviewing with, which was really helpful for contextualizing some of the questions they asked me.

Entretien
The interview process involved two technical phone interviews. Both interviews placed heavy emphasis on structural mechanics and manufacturing. Interview questions also involved many past projects that were listed on my resume.

Entretien
I was referred through a friend to someone in the HR department. They move VERY fast. I had a screening interview 3 days after being introduced and then had my first technical interview the following morning. This interview was based around work I had done for my FSAE team and how I had approached the design process for the drivetrain on the 2017 car. After a week or so I got an email saying that they wanted another interview. That interview was much like the previous one, where I was asked about things on my resume and about my involvement with my FSAE team.

Entretien
I applied through a referral and got a call from HR to schedule a phone interview. I had several calls from HR to provide my GPA and SAT scores for some reason. I got one scheduled for the next week with one of the structures engineers. 2 days after the interview I got a call from HR that I had been offered the intern position.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
The engineer mostly asked questions about my resume. I also sent him a presentation of my college projects for him to follow along which he enjoyed. He asked about my designs, why I did what I did, what materials I chose and why. There were no technical questions unrelated to the experience on my resume. I also had a low GPA (below 3.0) and he did not ask about it because the engineers don't care. Engineers just care that you have relevant experience, skills, and are a fast learner.
