I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at SpaceX in Oct 2020
Interview
One technical phone interview. Challenging technical questions about mechanical and electrical systems. Questions were asked based on prior experience in my design portfolio. Two weeks later, I was given an offer.

Question 1
What would the free body diagram of a drone ship look like the instant before a falcon 9 lands on it.
Very generous with bringing you onsite and showing you around, questions are hard mostly riddles. some interesting characters there to say the least. Not something I would do long term.

6 interviews (HR, Team, Hiring manager, Presentation onsite, Another Team, and Director). Overall, the interviews were challenging and thought provoking. I enjoyed the process and learned a lot about SpaceX culture and engineering
