3 phone interviews and an onsite technical presentation with a panel followed by 1 on 1ns. Interviews got more difficult as the interviewers were more and more senior. The response rate was the same day. Completed all three interviews within a week

Candidatei-me online. Fui entrevistado pela SpaceX em mar. de 2026
Entrevista
My interview experience at SpaceX was disappointing. The expectations felt extremely high, even for mid-level roles. Missing even one or two questions seemed to stop the process, and there was little tolerance for not knowing something.
It felt like they prioritize candidates who already know everything rather than those willing to learn. Overall, a very rigid and negative experience.
