I did my VI 18/10 but not heard back yet. Also when I login to my account it says Status - assessments - 06 Oct which is odd?

Anyone heard back from the video interview?


I just completed the video interview yesterday (I've been putting it off to "prepare") so will let you know if/when I hear back. Judging from how quickly BP progress applications compared to other schemes I've applied to, hopefully it won't be that long of a wait.

I believe this is when they sent out your invite for the SJT. I don't think they progress the application on Brassring for some reason, and the SJT, N&V tests, interviews, and assessment centres just come under 'assessments' - at least this is what I've gathered so far!

Hopefully, but I did my VI around 3 weeks ago and nothing yet

It might just depend on which scheme you've applied for, I wouldn't worry too much. They notify you whether they're progressing your application or not as far as I know.

I did my VI on the 31st Oct - expecting a minimum of 2 weeks based on prior responses to get a decision on whether I progress to the technical interview or not :/

Looking at last year's thread for the grad scheme seems like most technical interviews were held in Late November with assessment centres wildly varying between December and Jan.

What scheme is this for?

(This is for my internship) I completed my VI on the 23/10 but honestly, I messed up on one question so not expecting too much, however, I read some other forums as other people said and the VI's tend to hear feedback mid-November.

I think one question shouldnt be an issue if you answered the others well.
is your internship for the trading and shipping stream?

They're quite standard interview questions, only without asking about prior industry experience. A lot of how personal/academic stuff relates to the job. I think there were 6 questions in total.

Hey, I have an VI for the HSSE summer internship to do - do you remember what sort of questions were asked and what is worth preparing for?

Hi all, just found out I didnt clear the video interview for trading and shipping (Graduate scheme). I found it quite odd that I hadnt received an email and only found out that I had not been progressed when I logged onto the careers portal and it mentioned “no longer under consideration”

Thanks for the heads up, I’m in the same boat. They updated my portal to that yesterday but no other communication whatsoever. Best of luck in your other applications

Just got the rejection email for the video interview. Time to look for other roles aha.

Mine hasn't updated yet, I wonder if they're doing each programme separate.

My portal was processing at stage 3 and has now been reverted back to stage 2 screening and my last update has changed from October 14th to October 11th. Anyone know what is going on with that?

Reply 59

I just logged into my portal and the grad job I applied to is no longer showing up as something I have applied to. I did my video interview on the weekend. has this happened to anyone else? does this mean I have been rejected? Also, it doesn't show anywhere for unsuccessful applications.
