J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez SpaceX (Atlanta, GA) en oct. 2017
Entretien
Technical phone interview with the engineering lead of the Vehicle Launch assemby group. Heard back two weeks after the phone interview. Looking for a position in manufacturing. Interview lasted between 20-30 minutes- was very short and relatively fast paced.
If a colleague tells you he/she accidentally gouged 10% of the way through an aluminum component that is a couple thousandths of an inch thick, how would you go about repairing it? Would you even try to repair it?

The first round was a technical interview with lots of rapid fire technical questions. It was over the phone which made it hard to stop and think about how to answer each question.
