I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at SpaceX in Aug 2022
Interview
Phone screen then coding challenge to be done on your own compiler, not like leetcode. Followed by another phone call then on site then presentation there and then four 1on1 interviews.
Phone call with a recruiter discussing SpaceX, its goals, my resume, professional experience, interest in the role, availability to work overtime, and ability to handle additional responsibilities when needed for the position.
