Interviewed Nov 2011 in Whiting, IN (took 2 months)
I applied for this position in early August. As of October 31, 2011, I had an interview. I went to the Whiting Clean Energy facility for the interview. I was interviewed, by the Lead Operator, HSSE Manager, Operations Manager, and Operations Supervisor. Everyone from Admin Asst, to the Operators were friendly upon my arrival. The interview consisted of me sitting in a conference room with the four individuals mentioned. The questions that were asked of me were based on the motivational based behavior model, which examples of questions can be found online. I prepared for this interview by going over those questions and preparing responses. It helped tremendously. I would recommend trying to answer those type of questions before an interview. I am still waiting on a hiring decision. I was told that one would not be made until very close to the Thanksgiving holiday.

Interviewed Jan 2008 in Warrenville, IL (took 2 weeks)
The phone interview was very laid back, they liked my resume, so I was coached on what to do in the Group Panel Interview.
The Group/Panel Interview was an Situational Interview. Best to apply the SAR model (Specific Task, Action, Result). Once I had completed two of these in a row I was offered the job.

The interview process at BP is very detailed and thorough. The panel who conducted the interview was very well prepared and did an excellent job explaining the vacant position as well as the expectations for this position and how it fits into the overall department. The culture at this organization seemed very friendly as well.

Interviewed Jun 2008 in Chicago, IL (took 2 days)
it was very interesting and OVERLY thorough. , to the point that I couldn't believe that ANY decisions were made. Four hours I walked out of the building and was confused as to which direction I was facing. Of course I do believe that this is an exception to how things normally are
