  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?

    • Really relaxed and helpful, everyone was very friendly and willing to offer some advice. The graduates were one of best parts of the whole event. Very down Earth guys, and gave some fantastic advice, and a good incite into what a career at BP was like.

    • They had planned everything to a tee. The traffic was the all down side, but the short time I was there I felt like none of it had been wasted. Was always given something to do and not left in room for 10minutes.
