I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at bp (Londres, Inglaterra) in Nov 2014
Interview
Competency interview. Following online application, I was required to complete three online tests. The first was a situational judgement test, the following two were numerical and verbal reasoning.
There was a very formal part and a not-so-formal part to the interview. STAR technique was used throughout.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Standard competency questions related to company values.
The video interview was relatively quite long, questions were standard but a few caught me out asking things like 'what are your values and describe a time when you've showed these values'
Questions about alignment with BP values. Asked about 6 or 7 questions and was just 1 person interviewing. Overall it was fairly informal and was more of a chat than a proper interview. They asked why I had applied for the scholarship.
