I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at BHP (Melbourne) in Apr 2022
Interview
Currently, I am just on the virtual assessment stage. It is not too hard but it took a lot of time to finish 7 behavioural questions. After finishing the behavioural questions, you will be asked to do 2 IQ tests.

I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at BHP in Apr 2026
Interview
I just finished online assessment that includes 2 sections: video recording and cognitive testing.
I was stressed on video interview while it gave me time to prepare so I would say good experience overall.
In the interview, they highly encourage us to use STAR technique to answer questions.
Online Assessment - The first step in the recruitment process, it comes with six questions to answer, and section 2 has three different types of games to play. It easy and relaxed.
It was a video interview where you answered by recording yourself.
Felt a bit awkward as I was talking to myself. However, it was a good experience. There were also other assessments aside from video interview.
