Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Relativity Space.
Manufacturing Engineer
The first interview was pretty chill, like just chatting with someone who really likes aerospace. They gave me the lowdown on the job and the company, and then we mostly talked about my resume and what I'm hoping to get from the position. The second interview felt more like a proper interview, with questions that seemed a bit more prepared than just a casual chat, which is what I'd expect. It was still pretty relaxed and a good overall experience.
- Can you highlight something from your resume that's relevant to this position?
- What are your career aspirations and what do you seek in a job?
- Describe how you would handle a supply chain delay.
Manufacturing Engineer
It's the standard process for this industry. Round 1 is the Recruiter Call. Round 2 is the Hiring Manager Call. Round 3 is an onsite which includes a Panel presentation and then individual 1 on 1s. I personally had two different experiences. First time I came for an onsite it was bad. 2nd time I went for an onsite I thought I crushed it.
- Can you share an instance of encountering a technical challenge, detailing the primary indicators that led to the issue, the resolution implemented, and the corrective actions taken thereafter?
Manufacturing Engineer
I talked to a bunch of people at different levels, from manufacturing floor staff to engineers to managers. The conversations were mostly technical and focused on what they're doing with their products right now and what's coming up.
- Can you describe the key considerations for manufacturing 3D printed parts using welding robots within your current operational framework?
