      Assessment Lead - Sustainable Performance Improvement Team (SPI) Interview

      25 Apr 2013
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Chicago, IL
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at bp (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2013

      Interview

      School like test environment. A qualifying interview. Panel of three scribing your answers, like an official panel of enquiry. Three parts Behaviour based. 10+ questions about living "BP values and principles" in your project/team experiences. They give you the principle and ask you describe how you lived it/ applied it. Answers are expected to be mindlessly detailed (e.g. multiple minutes of STAR response format: situation, task, action, result). Answers can be kicked out for being too generic. Multiple examples can be requested for the principle (ok, give me another...). Business case The one I received required 20+ questions to tease out the values needed to perform the calculations. No calculators allowed. Strongly felt the calculations were more important than the thought process. Presentation Given a 7 page storyboard and 15 minutes to review, hold a executive update on early project findings. Ideal candidate seems to be a financial analyst. Little to no time to ask questions about the role. Reminded me of sitting for an exam in school. An interview process suitable for recent entry level grads, but completely useless to experienced hires. Hugely negative experience. At no time did this feel like a high performing team.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      (1) Business case question has many different variables. (2) Also was asked about "career aspirations" which is odd because when asked it was clear this role has no career path within BP.
