one phone screen with a recruiter then two more phone calls with an engineer and then hiring manager before leading to an onsite interview. Did not make it to the onsite
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.
