If you are an ambitious young person I still believe joining @SpaceX is one of the best career decisions you can make The world is pivoting from bits to atoms and there is no better training ground for atoms than SpaceX It may feel late but it's early Also the mission! 🚀🌕

For all you old folks asking why the ageism. Young kids are much easier to push. They have more energy and time than money. Old people won’t dedicate themselves to 80 workweeks for twenty years. @elonmusk wants loyalty and longevity.

Alternatively, one can invest every single cent in anything Musk does and enjoy a peaceful retirement...

Applied, numerous times, not even a "Thanks for applying" rejection letter. Definitely qualified for the position I applied for as well.

Atoms and children are our building blocks. No matter how small they are. In the end, our future is shaped by the atoms and our children. It's inevitable.

C'mon man, sup with the ageism? lots of experienced people with half a career left in them aren't young people. I heard a long tooth ex-NASA engineer made yuge contributions and was many times more productive because of the speed of idea->trial. Smart and ambitious is enough.

I agree with you! That would be like a dream come true. Unfortunately, I do not think that being sixty something falls into the category of young.

For ambitious old people: @heavensX "It may feel late, and let's hope so."

Can't agree more. Also the bar is very high

Define young person? If they use si/AI to make life longer. Is 40 years old considered still young yet? Cause I feel that I could offer plenty.

I know college grads at the top of their class and have applied, and they haven’t even received an auto response that their application has been received.

I am an ambitious middle aged person who needs a chance because I loyally worked for one industry and one company for 24 years and so now no one can tell what a benefit I offer because on paper it reads: “slot machine production lines”

Wish I was young, we are living in exciting times

yeah I agree, I mean I've been trying to think of a position for myself in that company, texted my dad over a year ago that "that's a company I'd do anything for", and yeah idk what I could do there, I'd need to meet a certain someone before that :)

The kind of workforce SpaceX will have to employee is not a workforce they'll get with their current application and hiring process
