The interview was straight forward and more so a personal interview rather than a technical one. The interviewer was polite and made conversation about general interests after the interview was over.

Question 1
What does your ideal job look like? Are you a self starter?
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Valero (College Station, TX) in Sep 2022
Interview
Mixture of techinical and behavioral questions, all questions about "tell me one time you showed..." later gave a chance for me to ask questions about their company. I did not do any prep for it and no questions surprised me.
