An at-a-glance guide to our internship process
To achieve this, all our interns go through the internship programme at the same time. This means the start date is the same for every intern, so unfortunately you can’t start your internship early.
A career at bp is more diverse than you might think. Whether you are studying marketing, finance, business, IT, HR or engineering, you can achieve your career goals with us.
It’s important to know that lateral moves aren’t uncommon. In fact, we encourage our teams to explore new areas and opportunities within our business. In some instances there may be the opportunity to work part-time for bp after you’ve completed the programme.
First, you need to complete the online application form. It’s important to take this component of your application seriously as it’s our first opportunity to get to know you.
If you’re selected, there are a number of steps in the process:
- Online testing.
- Recorded video interview.
- An assessment centre comprising a group activity and interview.
- Reference checking.
- Offer.
How do you support candidates with a disability?
Your recruiter will provide you with the support you need during the recruitment process or in the workplace wherever possible. Some examples of where they can offer support include:
- Printed documentation at group assessments for candidates who are living with a visual impairment.
- Providing an interpreter for candidates who have a hearing impairment.
- A standing face-to-face interview for candidates who are living with back injuries.
