SpaceX Senior Software Engineer interview questions

Two voice calls, first one with the recruiter and then an engineering questions interview followed by two (scheduled ) online "codility" programming tests at which point I decided to give SpaceX the wide berth that is suggested here by many others rather than subject myself to the insanity of these online tests. One day companies might realize that this kind of highly impersonal dehumanizing hiring process is quite broken. It really bears no resemblance whatsoever to the daily work that we all do as software engineers and it is far more likely to turn away and turn off the best talent and discourage the best coworkers. Stop hazing your candidates with meaningless hurdles. An engineer who has been over 20 years in the business likely DOES know how to code people. Particularly when I learned that they'd need up to 8 hours of my time for just one of these tests to simply figure out if I could actually code (something accomplished by other companies in less than 45 minutes) so I basically called that rubbish and I decided to withdraw from this retarded hiring process.

First HR, then phone screen which is trivia style questions on C++ , OOP, DS & Algorithms. Following that coding test at home, must be completed within 8 continuous hrs. Not allowed to use C++ STL containers. The first 60-90 minutes of this test you can communicate with the "proctor" by email, and you should use this period to clarify the question, communicate your intended solution before starting coding and get feedback. My "proctor" was helpful. After that, onsite interview, which is virtual right now. 25 minutes presentation to the team on a project you worked on, followed by Q&A. None of the team used their video camera (although I used mine), which created a cold experience. After that there were about 3 technical interviews centered around different design aspects. Questions were ambiguous. The session with the hiring manager focused on behavioral questions. After two days HR called to tell I did not pass and provided some feedback.
