Interview
Two people, asked the simple questions, what position are you interested in, weaknesses, why LyondellBasell, how was your day, etc. the lazy, usual questions that they ask. Nothing out of the ordinary.

Through campus career fair, they used the STAR method so make sure to prepare yourself for those kinds of questions. Overall not too bad the employees were all very nice.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at LyondellBasell (Channelview, TX) in Mar 2018
Interview
Applied for an Operator internship @ the Channelview, TX location. Received a call about a month later for a 1-on-1 interview with employee. It was basically a "get to know you" type of interview. Interviewer said he liked my responses and explained thoroughly what was expected of you if hired on for the internship position. Never made it to the 2nd interview. Wish they'd at least follow up and tell you instead of having you wait. I was told I'd receive a call within a few weeks, whereas other people received a call for the 2nd interview the following day.
