I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at BASF in Oct 2011
Interview
When being interviewed by BASF, what's primarily asked are behavior based questions. You really have to be quick on your feet to think of something to say and answer things like, "Describe a time when..." or "Explain how you handled this type of situation..."
It really isn't that horrible of an interview, but the interviewers are looking for specific situations you were in and how you handled yourself or how you handled the situation itself.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time when you didn't agree with a policy being enforced by management and how did you handle it?
