I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at bp (Budapest) in Jun 2017
Interview
Terrible HR, one of the worst I ever experienced. They scheduled a phone interview and they told me during the interview that they are testing me for a completely different position. After that, they did not provide any feedback and they did not let me apply for any other position at the company either, as they keep your data and if they don't choose you, they won't accept you to any other position afterwards. In some multinational firms in Hungary (though it is getting better for many companies, not for BP, obviously), the HR acts like they are doing you a favour for hiring you, hence they act very condescending. Due to this outdated hiring process, I'd recommend everyone to search for a different company, they may learn the lesson if they don't get quality employees.
I had a panel interview for entry level position of the financial analyst. All the process was run smoothly, with support of HR business partner. Technical questions were not applied, since before interview I had technical skills test. Mainly questions were covering soft skills and career objections.
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at bp (London, England) in Apr 2024
Interview
Straight forward process from beginning to the end.
took about 6 weeks from start to get an offer, all interview stages were virtual aside the final stage where I had to go in
Very difficult questions. I can't quite understand the connection between the interview questions and the job responsibilities of the advertised position. Overall, the application process lasted for 5 months and some unnecessary steps along the way.
