thanks bruh, how many applicants per place would u say there are. and are there many sick companies that pay well?
This year at EMEC, Exxon said they had 80 placements including summer and year in industry. Considering this includes HR, business and all engineering disciplines that doesn't leave many chemical engineering placements.
oi gimp bois, need some help yh. anyone of you lot done a placement, if yes, how hard is it to get one at exxon ( or any other bossy company), heard they pay like 26k and like 38500 for a graduate job.
yeah man its ****ing well hard to get one. I was near top of my course and couldn't bag an interview. Imagine, there's nearly 7000 chemeng students able to apply, probs half apply to exxon, bp and shell for about 10 places at each one, so about 1% chance of getting in.
I reckon now there's so many chem eng competition for the FTSE/Forbes list companies is similar to high finance and if you check out linkedin they all seem to have target unis too.
Remember if you do placement year you earn over two tax years so your effective salary is higher than it looks, but generally top payers are i.e >30k grad salary.
P&G, Exxon, Shell, BP, Johnson Matthey, Phillips 66, Essar
The Pharma companies like AstraZeneca and GSK pay a little lower but still good.

Cheers, why do you think Imperial aren't targeted as much as Manc or Notts?
Its engineering careers fair probably attracts as many engineering firms as anyone else. The High Fliers link only refers to the hundred employers mentioned in the Times 100.
