I think that may be fair to bring up in an interview but I don't think it's fair to be biased against a candidate. What you see as red tape may be important safety and quality steps in that industry. A good engineer should be able to recognize what process is good for what product! It's important to check our biases because even filtering out based on industry makes your candidate pool less diverse (age, experience, gender, etc) and leads to the tech monoculture which at least I don't think is a positive thing.
