The cultures was great. High tech interviewing via Skype and in -office. Small staff. Modern amenities. Professional and quick hire turn around. However, all interviewees were not able to mKe the interview. The most difficult question is the dreaded, tell us about yourself". However, There were not any unrxpecteed questions.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Valero (Dallas, TX)
Interview
It’s a very straightforward interview. Mine was with a fellow engineer. Time is about 30 minutes and they are all behavioral questions like “Tell me about yourself” and “Describe a time…”
45 Min interview. The interview involved a recruiter from the company asking situational-based questions and questions describing specific times when you were a leader or encountered a difficult situation. The overall experience was positive.

I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Valero
Interview
I talked to them while I was at the career fair even though I didn't have the initial intention to work for them. I hit it off with this one recruiter and she scheduled an interview. The interview was mostly behavioural questions with some probing into the more technical aspects. Not too extrenous, but preparation is required. I caught up with the recuriter later on at a social event Valero was putting on at the campus. I believe that extra initiative to show up to the social even after the interview eventually led to me being offered the internship.
