Your interview may be in-person or virtually via phone or video device. Usually, this will be with the person you'll be reporting to. They may also bring along someone else from their team or a key stakeholder you'll be dealing with in the role. This is a great opportunity to get to know us better and to ask any questions you might have about the role, flexible work and their experience working for BHP.
Engagement centres are not just a great opportunity for us to get to know each other, but as these are done in larger groups, the experience also allows you to meet multiple BHP employees, some of whom you may end up working with.

- A session overview, which is an opportunity to hear more information about BHP, the roles available and ask any questions you may have on the process or position you have applied for.
- A face-to-face interview and a group activity which normally lasts 2-3 hours.
- Online interview, usually you'll complete two interviews with different BHP employees who will ask you questions about your background as well as some scenario questions to help assess your suitability for the role.
