At SpaceX, we seek to hire only those with aerospace experience. Are you more experienced in the private or public aerospace industry?

"I noticed in your job posting that you prefer to see experience in the public aerospace sector. I have experience in both public and private; however, the most recent three years of my work experience is in the public sector. I am pleased to see that you kept applications open to those with experience in automotive, aerospace, aircraft, or civil dynamics or instrumentation. I have experience in aerospace and some automotive."

"I can say that I have equal experience in both public and private aerospace matters. Is there a specific sector where you would prefer to see stronger experience? I would be happy to highlight that experience for you further."

"The majority of my work has been in the private sector. I have worked for several small, local companies in NY. With that said, my current role is with the Federal government and I have been exposed to the "red-tape" of the public sector as well."

"I have worked in both private and public aerospace prior to applying for this role. I am familiar with the policies, regulations, requirements, and overall level of quality required."
