I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Marathon Petroleum
Interview
Interview began with elaboration on student background, long-term education plans, and location preference. Focus of interview shifted to academic courses taken and research projects conducted. Interview concluded with possible offers available and contact information exchange between both parties.
Asked all behavioral questions by two interviewers who worked in the same field as I do. They were very kind and open to answering any questions I had. They interviewed a lot of applicants at my school so there was not a high percentage of acceptances.
