If you have government contracts, which is the way SpaceX survives, the rule is you have to consider everyone for employment that can be employed. That means you have to consider refugees as long as they can be legally employed. You don't have to employ them but you can't exclude them due to their status.

Possibly an interesting catch-22 with regards to certain contracts’ requirements.

It means a whole lot of wasted time (on both sides) interviewing people for jobs they never had a real chance at getting

Why would a refugee or asylum seeker "never have a chance" at getting hired by a company like SpaceX? Seems like that is part of the problem, no?
