About You
I was very interesting and useful as I found out a lot about BP.
Everyone at the company looks really satisfied with their job, which is incredible and shows they feel valued and appreciated.
Everyone was really attentive and made us feel comfortable.
By going to a BP Discovery Day I had the chance to experience the atmosphere of the company. I had the opportunity to talk to some of the interns there and found out details about the application process. This was really important for me as I believe it would help me to write a better application when I apply for a placement.
The Company
Everything was organised and structured to keep you focused and interested all the time. There were presentations about the company, presentations delivered by some of the graduates there and a tour around the laboratories.
It was very positive, enjoyable and relaxed.
I believe BP is a company that supports its employees and gives them the chance to develop.
I definitely understood what my daily activities would include and how I can plan my career at BP.
I had the chance to have casual conversations with many of the people that work at BP, which helped me understand their way of thinking and the culture of the company.
It was extremely valuable as I found out BP can give me the chance to grow and develop numerous skills and I would love to work at BP in the future.
Everything Else
I was reimbursed immediately after the Discovery Day.
Yes, I had the chance to meet Î÷¹ÏÊÓÆµs from other universities that were there, company managers, interns, etc.
They were useful and interesting.
I did not find out a lot about activities outside of work.
I would definitely recommend it to a friend as it gave me the chance to find out if I want to work for BP and it was really enjoyable.
