Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 4 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso SpaceX (Vandenberg AFB, CA) nel mese di gen 2025
Colloquio
I had an overwhelmingly positive experience. There were four phone interviews then an in-person interview. The in-person interview was split into 3 parts: technical presentation, assessment and facility tour.
A lot of what I saw and was asked was covered by NDA, but know your fundamentals at all times.

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.
