Many interviews. Informed up front this was not a 40hr week type job. Weekends were common. A lot of work. Not great pay. Bonus paid in SpaceX stock. Accepted offer elsewhere.

I interviewed by phone for a position with SpaceX in June of 2021. I was contacted for an initial recruiter screen. About a week later, I did a second interview with hiring manager and completed technical writing assessment. After several weeks I learned I did not progress to the final round.

The interview process is unlike anything I'd ever experienced before. I like that it challenged me to dig deep into why I would be a good fit and an asset to SpaceX. Unlike what I have read about other SpaceX interviews, mine took much longer than most. Not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing, just wanted to throw out this information for anyone reading this and is also in conversations with SpaceX recruiters. I had 3 phone call interviews before I was invited to the facility to do a PowerPoint presentation interview. I also was asked to write a maintenance manual for a specified task and submit it to the team for review. Then entire process from application to job offer was a little less than two months.
