Working at SpaceX
Working at SpaceX
The willingness of the company to try new things, take risks, and allow people to accomplish their objectives with minimal oversight is amazing.
A decent amount of time is spent reinventing the wheel and re-learning the same lesson, just in a slightly different context or program. This sometimes leads to innovation and/or improvement, but just as often leads to headaches.

SpaceX Interview Experiences
Test Engineer
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. Had a 30 min phone call interview, where I talked about my experience and a project that I had worked on. And then the last 10 mins were spent on basic fundamentals of engineering questions.
Test Engineer
The whole process took a little over a month. I was contacted by a recruiter via email for a position I applied for last year. It began with a short phone interview with the recruiter, followed a week later by a 1-hour long technical phone interview
Test Engineer
A recruiter reached out to me after finding me on LinkedIn. After exchanging a few emails and sending my resume, the recruiter interviewed me over the phone. My resume was then forwarded to the hiring manager, who scheduled another phone interview. T
