Lame. Applied online three months later for an HR interview (not with the manager who knows the job).

Seven questions were asked, and I was told to expand on them.

I cannot expand on "1 + 1 = 2." It is what it is.

No feedback was provided. It looks like HR has the answers SpaceX wants to see, and if you do not match the chosen answers, you receive an automatic 'no' by email.

1. Describe a time when you took a stance against popular consensus. What was the outcome?

2. What are the most important things to consider when analyzing the impact of a change?

3. What are the typical elements of a complex manufacturing operation?

4. What are the pros and cons of standardization?

5. What does your current (or most recent) role require you to do that you think is wasteful or inefficient? Why do you think it is wasteful? How would you change this requirement? What prevents this change?

6. Your manager wants to understand the efficiency and effectiveness of a Change Control Process. What 3 metrics or measurements would you choose to most effectively convey this? Why?

7. What was the last thing you learned? How did you learn it? How long did it take you to become proficient?
