They asked me for a Presentation about how my modules at university can help me at the company.
He then asked me questions about Safety, Sensors, Instrumentation, PLCs and Radars
Four interviews; one technical, two HR and one with discipline head.
Technical interview was very good but 2nd HR interview was completely inappropriate with personal questions such as ‘what would your wife say is your least favourable aspect of your personality?’ and ‘how old are your children?’ Additionally the interview times and dates constantly changed at short notice creating difficulties with my current employer/role.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Perenco (Rio de Janeiro) in Feb 2025
Interview
Entrevista com grau de dificuldade técnico médio a difícil. Poucas perguntas sobre características pessoais e foco maior em experiências e conhecimento sobre reservatórios e geociência. Dificuldade em entender as falas e perguntas do entrevistador principal, o que levava a especialista de RH repetir.
