      Accepted offer
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Imperial Oil (Calgary, AB) in Nov 2010

      Interview

      Imperial interviews using a behavioral question process. This means primarily questions with the format: Describe a time when X happened to you? What actions did you take (lets call them Y) when X happened? What were the results of you doing Y? They like your answers in the StAR's format: Situation, Action, Result. The interview process typically follows: Resume screening - Up to 30 candidates whittled down to between 5-10 Initial Interview - Candidates receive a screening interview with someone not necessarily related to the job they are applying for, this interview is simply to check if you are a good 'company fit' 2nd round interview - Between 2 and 5 candidates are interviewed before final selection. You will travel to the corporate offices and partake in 3 separate interviews with people you will work with if you are selected.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. I interviewed at Imperial Oil (Calgary, AB) in Oct 2017

      Interview

      Good process. Well-structured. For EIT roles, the interview is very behavioural oriented. Ex. how did you deal with X situation in this setting, tell me about a time when.. If you have previous experience there then they will question you about that also. Advice: Prepare for behavioural questions and reflect over your existing work experience. After that just be authentic and derive confidence from that. Worst thing is buckling in the interview
