I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at ConocoPhillips (Bartlesville, OK)
Interview
It is incredibly important that you make a personal connection with someone in the company (and get them to ping the hiring manager for you as a referral) if you want your resume to be considered. Otherwise there are simply too many applicants for every job. Once you get through the initial technical screening (which is relatively simple), you are going to do a STAR behavioral interview. Be sure to do some research so you understand how to answer these questions. The hiring manger is essentially just trying to complete a worksheet on you to make sure you provide all the elements of the STAR. From there, I would just say that ConocoPhillips is a very family/friend oriented organization. You are much more likely to be hired if (in addition to being qualified for the job), you come across like a great guy/girl who just wants to help out. Nice people are preferred.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Have you ever been in a group that did not work well together?
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at ConocoPhillips (Houston, TX) in Apr 2012
Interview
Technical and other questions by 5 team members in separate one on one sessions. Most were too simple and irrelevant. Some were even ridiculous. I felt as though the team members were interviewing for a position well above their own status.
