I applied online. I interviewed at SpaceX (Los Angeles, CA) in Nov 2022
Interview
Phone Interview. Very smooth, and technical. Ask questions based on Resume, and any relating backgrounds. They will ask you technical questions, don't panic, use your knowledge. Overall very good phone interview.
interview process was long and tedious. started with a recruiter screening, minimal technical questions, then moved to a hiring manager technical interview, following this was a technical presentation to a panel of engineers, i was then brought on site for an interview which included another pannel interview, site walkaround and questioning, then a written multiple choise mechanical assessmnet.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at SpaceX (Cape Canaveral, FL) in Nov 2025
Interview
The interview started with 15 minute going through your past project / experiences. Followed up with 15 minute rapid fire technical questions (3 questions including topics from mechanical, fluids, and FEA)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
If your FEA tells you the part fails, do you trust 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.
