I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at SpaceX
Interview
Very quick and easy process, two rounds. Both focused unexpectedly only mainly on grilling my resume and verifying I actually knew what I was talking about in regards to engineering processes/etc. Just review engineering fundamentals and know your projects well for internship. Took less then a month total.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at SpaceX in Feb 2023
Interview
The interview process consisted of two phone calls (one interview and one call back interview), and the interviewer was a senior engineer on the team. Sometimes it is the lead engineer, but in my case he was busy.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you go about designing a GPS module cantilevered off a satellite and what are the design considerations you would factor in?
