I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ExxonMobil (New York, NY) in Sep 2016
Interview
The interview was on-campus. It was a behavioral interview; formulaic. The HR reps also held an informational session and a smaller group session for people who wanted to ask any questions about the company and/or position. Side note: Exxon has a reputation as being pompous and you have to buy into that and stroke their employees' collective egos. Also, I cautiously asked about their LGBT policies (of which they have a very unimpressive history) and their environmental stewardship (of which they have none)-- and I strongly believe those questions were one reason I didn't get an offer. They want candidates who drink their kool-aid.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time when you find convinced others to do something they didn't want to do. How did you do it? (Or questions very similar. The questions overlapped a lot.)
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ExxonMobil (Buenos Aires) in Dec 2025
Interview
Son 4 entrevistas en total (soy personal eventual/contractor). Las primeras tres por parte de la agencia, para preguntar y comentar lo básico; la segunda para conocer el nivel de inglés; la tercera es una entrevista grupal, y supongo que ahí definen a quién eligen. La cuarta entrevista es con la empresa directamente, en la cual te comentan la descripción del puesto y también chequean tu nivel de inglés.
The interview was a panel interview where they mostly asked questions about a project that I shared. I did not get the chance to ask any questions. The interview lasted about an hour in person.
Horrible they lied to me and several other candidates about the process and their plans. They still offered me the position which I turned down because I didn’t feel it was worth it.
