I applied on the website. A few days later, I received an email from HR to schedule a phone screen call. The process for scheduling availability was very user-friendly. You were given a link and asked to fill out your availability on a calendar. Based on my response, HR contacted me about the date and time for a phone screen. The HR email noted that if I had any questions, I should feel free to reach out. I sent a few questions and never received a reply. The day of the interview came, and nobody called. I followed up right after with an email. I never received a response either. Quite unprofessional in my opinion.

I highly appreciate SpaceX and Elon, their work, and mission. However, experiences like these turn people off. There should be basic professionalism and decency in the hiring/recruiting process. Very disappointing.

I understand that the company is looking for top talent, but that doesn’t mean that less talented or experienced candidates can be ghosted. Simply let us know that we were not selected, and that’s it. Nothing else is needed. Please don’t give false hope.

Nobody called back for an interview.
