      After passing the online test and phone personality interview, BP paid for my travel for the face to face technical interview. I had two interviewers. It was very formal and professional. They asked about my geophysical experience at university and then tested my technical knowledge.

      Geophysics Interview

      Anonymous employee
      Fairbanks, AK
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at bp (Fairbanks, AK) in Oct 2014

      Interview

      The whole process took about 1 month. I applied online during my university recruitment and they called me for an interview in ~1 week. The interviewers invited us for a meet and greet the night before the interviews. We had appetizers and were able to ask them any questions we had. This was helpful because I got to meet the people that would be interviewing me beforehand. Pretty standard personality-based interview questions. Had to describe faults, beds, trap styles, regional setting, etc. in a seismic line at the end. That was a bit difficult, but they gave me a couple hints along the way. I received a call about a month later offering me the position. They gave me a week to decide whether or not to take it.
