First, there were some assessments. Then, a video interview where you had to talk about yourself and why you want to work for Equinor, using examples from your past.

The interview is online and doesn't offer much interaction between the candidate and the interviewer. My prior internship experience didn't seem to help much, based on what I gathered from the full-time employees.

So Equinor's online interview process first starts with an application screening. After that, you'll have some psychometric and skills assessments to do. Then, you move on to a recorded video interview where you answer pre-set questions. This is followed by live video interviews where they'll do a behavioral and technical evaluation. If you make it to the end, you might talk with some senior team members before they make an offer, if you're selected.
