Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso SpaceX (Cape Canaveral, FL)
Colloquio
It was a mix of technical and soft skills questions. Do not expect any feedback or anything of the sort. Make sure to brush up on mech & mat if working on design/structures work. Overall a very dry process that keeps you in the dark in many ways. You might also be asked extremely obscure and random questions. It just seems like they just want to see how you process it and decide to proceed without knowing something.

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.
