I applied through university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at BASF in Jan 2018
Interview
1 hour 2 employers interviewing at the same time.
Not very personable. It was a lot of give give give not sure that they could offer us candidates. If you tell them you made a mistake at work (only human) they get shocked and ask why you didn’t do it a different way.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at BASF in Oct 2016
Interview
-Applied online
-On campus interview
-2 interviewers (1 HR, 1 SCM)
-45 min interview
-They were nice and easy to talk to
-They had a greeter who was someone in the same role I was going for. Helped ease some nerves before the interview.
-Overall, even though they were easy to talk to, I still felt slightly intimidated (neither interviewer smiled very much). I definitely got the vibe from the whole experience that people are typically more Type A at BASF. This could be a huge generalization, but based on the people I've met, that's how it seemed.

Interview
Applied through university recruiting. I was contacted and conducted the first round interview on campus, which consisted of reviewing my resume and experiences. Second round of interviews included a "meet and greet" networking event on site, with interviews the following day. The interviews consisted of three sessions, all 1:1 conversations. I was asked questions to determine my behavior and ethics.
