I applied online. I interviewed at Slingshot Aerospace in Jan 2026
Interview
I spoke with a recruiter, then the hiring manager, then two PMO associates, the two cross-functional leaders over the course of two and a half weeks. Then I was completely ghosted.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Slingshot Aerospace (Denver, CO) in Oct 2025
Interview
I initially interviewed for one senior product designer role but then that role was filled and there was another senior product designer role the head of product felt I would be a better fit for.
I had an initial screening call with the recruiter, followed by a 45 min call with the head of product, then an 1hr call with a product manager and ux researcher/designer. Finally I had a call with the manager of software engineering.
It was a very streamlined and efficient interview process which I really appreciated. I also really appreciated the fact that they did not have me undertake a design exercise which so many companies have you do now for designers roles and don't pay you for.
It was really a great experience and I wish more companies would such a well organized interview process.
