I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at SpaceX
Interview
Online application, phone interview. Be prepared to answer a variety of STAR story questions as well as review any technical skills you bring to the table. If you're applying for an Engineering spot you will go through a separate Technical Interview with one of the Recruiters, and then again with a full-time employee from that engineering team.
