J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 6 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez SpaceX (Brownsville, TX) en mai 2025
Entretien
Had multiple phone interviews, two in person recruiter meetings (Through SAE events), and an onsite panel interview. I went through 11 total, for two different positions. Every interview is technical, starting with basic solid mechanics and then they'll grill you on projects you've done in the past. The recruiters are nice and personal; will get to know you and vouch for you. Over all, very stressful, but worth it.

Why SpaceX?
J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez SpaceX (Brownsville, TX)
Entretien
Asked technical questions regarding basic college engineering fundamentals, asked engineering portfolio questions regarding previous internship and project experiences, and asked hypotheticals based on what areas were owned on those projects.
First was with a lead engineer (technical), then with a recruiter (behavioral), then with another lead engineer (technical), future would have been on site. It was a very accelerated timeline and fast process.

Entretien
Multiple rounds of interviews ending with an all day onsite interview. Asked questions about background, classic textbook problems, and coworker interactions. Very technical and difficult. Lots of time spent trying to understand your thought process
