I applied online. I interviewed at ExxonMobil (Lagos)
Interview
Basically a three - stage hiring assessment process:
- Computer based assessment
- Interview 1st stage
- Interview 2nd stage
The computer based assessment covers numerical, verbal, abstract, and discipline-specific sections. It was quite challenging, but not insurmountable. Succeed in this stage and you would be invited for a 1st stage of interviews.
The 1st stage of interviews is with a panel of about three mid-level interviewers. They were absolutely cool and would do all they can to put you at ease. Succeed in this level and you would be invited for a second stage of interview.
The second stage of interview is a brief chat with very senior interviewers, likely to get to know you more and make the final hiring decision.
