I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at SpaceX
Interview
Fairly straight forward. A phone screening followed by a technical interview for starters. If you make it through both, you get a coding challenge. Focus on just trying to pass a few test cases so you can make it to the next round. Didn't pass this round but the final round is an in person superday.
Basic questions about python vs c++, am I authorized to work in the US, stack vs heap, projects and my experience mentioned in my resume, quick introduction about myself and why i wish to work at spacex.
Recruiter screens usually hit: time/space complexity of common operations, why O(log n) beats O(n), array vs hash map vs linked list tradeoffs, and Big-O of sorting. Want me to drill you on these?
