J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez SpaceX (Hawthorne, CA) en mars 2015
Entretien
Received a phone call from my to-be manager at a time earlier agreed upon. He was a nice guy who was very happy to be working at SpaceX. I asked the manager how he began working at and enjoyed working at SpaceX. He asked a few very easy technical questions to hear my problem-solving process - just talk a lot and make sure the manager knows what you are thinking. Quite an easy interview but also likely depends on who is interviewing.

Question 1
You are in a boat in a pool with a brick. You toss said brick into the water of the pool. Once the water settles again, has the height of the water gone up, down, or remained the same?

Entretien
The interview process for me was quick, helpful, and ultimately very fruitful. I was in touch with a recruiter very quickly, and received prompt responses to questions. Scheduling of the interview was easy, and done at a convenient time for me. The recruiter was quick to get back to me after my interview with an offer. The whole process took less than two weeks.

Question 1
I was asked a number of questions about relevant hands-on engineering experience that I had listed on my resume. From this, the interviewer - who ultimately became my manager - was able to determine whether or not I would be a good fit.

Entretien
Was contacted by HR to schedule phone interview. Was called later that day to schedule 2nd phone interview. A week and a half later I was notified that the team did not want to move forward at that time. Questions were related to my past experience/projects.

J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez SpaceX (Los Angeles, CA) en juil. 2015
Entretien
I spoke to some recruiters at the 2015 Formula SAE competition who added me to a "rockstar" list (hooray!). I was contacted in June, and had a single phone interview/screening in July.
The phone interview was about 30 minutes to an hour long and included questions about previous experience and more specifics o things on my resume such as my FSAE experience. The last portion of the interview was a quick technical interview: mostly focusing on the classic mechanical engineering questions regarding beam tensile/bending/buckling deflection/failure, and some ways to maximize performance, as well as what failure looked like.
I was given an offer shortly after and accepted the position for the following summer (so interview at the end of summer 2015 and internship during the summer of 2016).
