I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at SpaceX (Hawthorne, CA)
Interview
One recruiter behavioral phone screen -> Two technical calls -> One full day technical panel interview onsite
95% of the questions were technical, and will tap into your knowledge and past projects
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe your past projects, what did you do, what did you accomplish, and what would you do differently
I applied online. I interviewed at SpaceX (Brownsville, TX)
Interview
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.
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
