      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at ExxonMobil in Mar 2009

      Interview

      Very friendly process. Every interviewer made me feel very comfortable. Appeared more like a discussion than an interview.

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Spring, TX
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at ExxonMobil (Spring, TX) in Jan 2024

      Interview

      I interviewed back in 2019, which included two phone calls and an invitation to their campus in Spring, TX. Overall, it was a good process, although I did not end up getting the job. However, the culture there was quite strange. Everyone acted as if they were the only ones who knew their job, and the arrogance was obvious. If you're not an arrogant person, you might not find it a friendly environment to work in.

      I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ExxonMobil (Houston, TX) in Sept 2015

      Interview

      There was on campus recruiting and I had interview with them. Most of the question are behavior questions, and focusing on how to solve work conflicts, talk about a time that you persuade someone, and talk about your leadership experience. I got phone call a week later from the upstream research company. They asked me some technical question during the phone interview.
