Me postulé a través de un reclutador. El proceso tomó 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en SpaceX (Hawthorne, CA) en feb 2025
Entrevista
- 30 min recruiter screen, asking general questions about resume and experience
- 4 hour take home coding assessment, satellite beams.
- 45 min technical/experience discussion, where you pick one project from your resume and explain it in detail. They ask questions such as, what would you have done different, how did you collaborate, etc. Then, you get the chance to ask them questions. Should have picked a more relevant project for the role, as the recruiter did not ask me any technical questions. Did not make it past this round.

Recruiter screens usually hit: time/space complexity of common operations, why O(log n) beats O(n), array vs hash map vs linked list tradeoffs, and Big-O of sorting. Want me to drill you on these?
