      Graduate Chemical Engineer Interview

      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Southampton, England
      No offer
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at ExxonMobil (London, England) in Oct 2017

      Interview

      Skype interview after submitting my CV and completing the online numerical test. Thought it would be your average skype call, turned out to be a voice call. The interviewer seemed friendly and when I didn't employ the STAR method of answering competency questions (due to nerves) was very kind and allowed me to expand. Overall, the interview lasted approximately 15-20 minutes.

      Interview questions [3]

      Question 1

      Tell me about a time when your ideas differed from the rest of the group, what did you do about it?
      Answer question

      Question 2

      How do you go about searching for a job?
      Answer question

      Question 3

      Describe a situation where you were able to influence others on an important issue. What approaches or strategies did you use?
      Answer question
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at ExxonMobil (Southampton, England)

      Interview

      Attended an assessment center, was fairly high pressure and the vibe in the factory wasn’t the best. I got rejected but even if I received an offer I wouldn’t work there

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Assessment center with a problem presented and a group effort to solve for it

      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at ExxonMobil (Fawley, Berkshire, South East England, England) in Dec 2022

      Interview

      First stage is to do a test, then if pass you get selected for a video interview. Video interview is about an hour, is very technical, few competence questions to start then technical. Then final stage is assessment centre which is a games based and team working based assessment, no intevriew or anything Technical questions typically involve application questions regarding a distillation column or a heat exchnger, these are the most common topic choices, so need full understanding of these.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Why exxon? What can you bring? Talk about previous experience? What do you know about heat exchangers? Where can you place a CO sensor in a furnace? How does a shell and tube heat exchnger work?
