The process took 2 days. I interviewed at bp in Oct 2009
Interview
Interviews are behavioral and situational based. Confidence OK, but BP does not like too cocky. You must be pro diversity which is simple enough. Advancing at BP may require moving nationally or internationally, so if you are mobile make it known, and if you are not, keep it to yourself. Some people are starting to get skills tests, but some do not. So there might be an Excel, general math, accounting test,...etc. for some basic roles. But other interviews are situational and behavioral only, but be careful to gauge your audience and see if they want skill or behavior, and tailor your answer accordingly.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you had to deal with a difficult person and how you solved it.
I had a panel interview for entry level position of the financial analyst. All the process was run smoothly, with support of HR business partner. Technical questions were not applied, since before interview I had technical skills test. Mainly questions were covering soft skills and career objections.
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at bp (London, England) in Apr 2024
Interview
Straight forward process from beginning to the end.
took about 6 weeks from start to get an offer, all interview stages were virtual aside the final stage where I had to go in
Very difficult questions. I can't quite understand the connection between the interview questions and the job responsibilities of the advertised position. Overall, the application process lasted for 5 months and some unnecessary steps along the way.
