I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ConocoPhillips (Houston, TX) in Jan 2012
Interview
I received a phone call about 2-3 weeks after applying for the position online. I was asked to join them for an onsite interview scheduled for one week later. The interview consisted of two short 30 minute interviews with a panel consisting of 2-3 people in each panel. Everyone was very friendly and the interview process was more like a conversation. They did ask some standard behavior questions to describe a time when you were in a difficult situation, etc. Each member of the panel shared their story and did most of the talking. I was able to respond and react to each of their comments and asked some follow up questions. One of the most comfortable and natural interviews I have ever been through. I received a brief phone call exactly one week after my interview that I would be receiving an email offer from them. This is a company that really feels like a family and I can't wait to get started.
The interview process is pretty basic. Folks are Super friendly and the process is average. Several rounds with a few folks for each round. Happy to report interview process not filled with convoluted human resource questions.
The first part of the interview you might be asked Tell me about yourself. Depending on how long the interview time is , the interview will consist of about 5 STAR interview questions.
