Solicité el puesto a través de la escuela superior o la universidad. El proceso duró 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en SpaceX (Vandenberg AFB, CA) en mar 2015
Entrevista
SpaceX visited my university, where I talked to an alumnus engineer. After, I got contacted by a recruiter, where I had a 20 minute phone screen. Two days later I had a technical phone interview with two engineers from the team I'd be working on. That day I was notified I got through to the final round. I went on-site a few weeks later and gave a twenty-minute presentation on a technical project I worked on and went through some more technical interviews. That day (again) I was notified that pending executive approval, I was to be given an offer. The process was very fast and the fact that you are notified of the results of that interview that day is particularly a nice change of pace.

The first round was a technical interview with lots of rapid fire technical questions. It was over the phone which made it hard to stop and think about how to answer each question.
