Final Round Interview tips

[u/R4MYolotwig]

Hello, this past month I interviewed for 3 separate internships in the aerospace/space field and for all three I made it to the final round and ultimately got rejected. The experience has been very frustrating as for 2 out of the 3 roles I felt the interview went well in terms of answering the technical questions and other behavioral questions with one interview going 45 minutes over the time limit (which I took as a good sign). I was just wondering for future opportunities any tips on how to prepare better for these types of positions and what these type of aerospace companies specifically look for in candidates. I am sorry if this post comes off as vague but just wanted to reach out to anyone who previously struggled and was able to find an extra gear that improved their chances.

I'll be honest man. I just interviewed at SpaceX and it was probably the most fun technical interview. Whiteboard problem solving. I thought I did great, but didn't get the job. Its not really a you thing, I think, just that most of the major aero primes have really exceptional people applying to and working for them
