Met at career fair, had a quick interview afterwards, then came in person to the office. They showed me around the office and the actual refinery, which was quite cool to see up close and gave me a better idea of their work.

Behavioral

It was an on-campus interview that lasted around 20 minutes. Mostly behavioral questions were asked. It felt less like a conversation and more like the interviewer was reading questions and I was just answering. They took notes and it was a really quick process.
