Had a 1 call with a recruiter, who asked me about myself, and asked if i met the qualifications for the role. Then got ghosted for the 1:1s call, was never scheduled even after reaching out.
I applied online. I interviewed at Blue Origin in Apr 2026
Interview
30 minute phone screen, where technical questions were asked. Followed up with a request to schedule a panel interview consisting of 5x 45 minute one-on-one interviews. One of these interviewers is going to be your manager (this is last usually), one is a "bar raiser" (sounds like an HR term, they asked behavioral questions not technical questions), and the others are people you will be working with who might be leads or peers or more senior engineers on the team. Some of these can delve into more technical areas, some of these panelists will ask more behavioral questions. Be prepared for both categories. I was a little less prepared for the behavioral questions, although I'm more comfortable speaking extemporaneously on those topics.
I dad 30 minutes technical screen phone interview. Technical screen asked about my relevant technical experiences and general technical knowledge questions. Scheduled for interview consisting of {4} 45-minute one on ones with the interview team. Interview will be on Microsoft Teams.
