I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at ExxonMobil (Baytown, TX) in Sept 2009
Interview
The hiring process for me started at my university. There we were given an hour long interview that had behavioral based questions (Tell me about a time when you...). From there I was referred to a specific site that I had to do a phone interview to gauge my interest. I attended an all day event on site where I was given three interviews with management and technical leaders. Very similar types of behavior questions were asked as well as letting me know what types of opportunities were available.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you had to solve a problem creatively.
Campus recruitment out of university.
1) Career fair screening, a few short behavioural interviews
2) Site reaches out for additional behavioural interviews
3) On-site with all day interviews varying from technical and behavioural. Technical focused on basics of distillation, hydraulics, and some reactions.

Question 1
Tell me about a time...worked with someone difficult, had to solve a problem with limited information
Very good. Three stages of interviews. Phone screen, online interview, then on site interview that included a behavioral based interview, technical interview, then chat with department head. Ensure that all interview answered are structured correctly and just be yourself. Interview them as they interview you.

I applied through university. I interviewed at ExxonMobil (Beaumont, TX) in Oct 2022
Interview
3- steps, not to difficult. There is a behavior interview, followed by a technical interview, the the closing interview with a technical head at the site. Intimidating, but the questions were not to bad at all
