Summer Internship at Exxon Mobil
No Offer – Interviewed in Melbourne Aug 2012 – Reviewed Sep 27, 2012
Interview Details Apply online through the exxon mobil summer vacation work page. Had a phone interview which lasted quite long (almost 50 minutes). Didn't really prepare for it so the questions were sort of shocking - looking back they were quite generic (leadership skill, extra-curricula, problem-solving). Few days later got a call for a 2nd round interview in Melbourne. They arranged flights and accomodation. Interview was very short (30mins - repeated questions) and a drug test.

Interview Details
Did not have hard interviews, until it was the last interview. Already had experience in the position they were looking for. They want leaders and people who will help the company grow in the direction of leadership (i.e. against all competitors).
Had a friendly recruiter and they took us out to dinner before the main on-campus interview.
No presentations either.

Co-op at Exxon Mobil
No Offer – Reviewed Mar 27, 2013
Interview Details It was an on-campus interview. It was a 1:1 interview with a campus recruiter who's an engineer in a manufacturing plant. He first asked me about my work experience on my resume and proceeded with a prepared behavior-type interview with four questions. Nothing technical related. Be aware of the differences between upstream and downstream, and know which you prefer. Overall, I thought it went well, but there are several other candidates applying for the same position.

They seem very generic. They can be mean and stern but some are very nice. Exxon is a great place to be an intern at.
