I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks – interviewed at ExxonMobil.Interview Details
Applied through university after Exxon gave an information session at my school. I was then invited to interview on campus. This initial interview lasted about 45 minutes and consisted entirely of behavioral questions. The normal "tell me about a time when..." STAR type questions. The interviewer had a packet of questions they would read from and then record my responses, with minimal eye contact or other acknowledgement of my answers. You should come prepared with five or more situations that you can discuss for different topics like showing leadership, overcoming sudden challenges, dealing with uncooperative group members, etc. Don't memorize your stories but know what things to hit on for each one.
Within a week of my initial interview I was invited to come to the Houston office for the second round. I was flown there and treated to a dinner the night before the interview. This dinner gives you a chance to meet other candidates and new college hires. The next day we were taken to the campus, where a continental breakfast was provided and we ate alongside the interviewers as well as other ExxonMobil employees. Don't be afraid to speak up here and ask the employees questions or even try to engage in small talk.
After breakfast the interviews began. It was three interviews, back to back, 50 minutes each. Each interview was one-on-one with a different interviewer, but they were all behavioral and consisted of similar questions from the first round. Same type of STAR questions, read from a packet, with your answers being jotted down. It seemed that each interviewer was also able to ask one question of their own. After that there was a lunch and a presentation. It was a very long day, and you should be in "interview mode" for the entire time. Rest easy though, knowing that if you made it to the second round of interviews then you have a VERY good chance of getting an offer. Just be yourself and show them that you're someone they would want to work with.
I received my offer within a week from the second round.Interview Questions
Negotiation DetailsI didn't even bother trying to negotiate because the offer was higher than I would have asked for.Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceAverage Interview
- Tell me about a time when things changed in the middle of a project and you had to start all over. Answer Question
- Application Details
I applied through college or university. The process took 4+ weeks – interviewed at ExxonMobil.Interview Details
I requested an interview through my school's career fair and interviewed maybe a week later. It was very straightforward, much like a conversation. My interviewer went through my resume and asked me about various things, asking typical behavioral questions along the way (biggest challenges I faced while doing X, conflict resolution examples, etc.). It was very relaxed and pleasant.
I received an email about a week later saying that I had made it through the first round of interviews. Then I got a call from a site about a week later in which I was mostly asked what kind of work I'm interested in doing as an intern and why I'm interested in working at ExxonMobil. I received an internship offer at this site about a week after that.Interview Questions
Negotiation DetailsI didn't negotiate since the offer was well above what I indicated during the application process.Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceEasy Interview
- What leadership skills have you learned/acquired through extracurricular activities that would be relevant to working at ExxonMobil? Answer Question
- Application Details
I applied through college or university. The process took 7+ weeks – interviewed at ExxonMobil in November 2014.Interview Details
Several recruiters came to my colleges career fair. I got an in campus interview and got an email 13 days later saying I made it through to the next round and somebody would reach out to me. 19 days later somebody reached out to me scheduling a phone interview. This took place the same day and was really like a phone screening to make sure I didn't get this far by accident. I was told on the phone I made it through to a business line interview and somebody would reach out to me. 3 days later my big phone interview was scheduled. The phone interview was laid back but fairly difficult and lasted an hour. 6 days later I was called down to Houston and was flown down a week from then. They take VERY good care of their candidates, and I don't want to spoil the surprise.
The interview in Houston was long and intense, I won't lie, but all of the questions were valid. Everybody was very kind, especially Karen.
I got a call 45 minutes after I left the interview telling me I got the job and to expect an email shortly. The compensation is very fair.Interview Questions

- special occasion2bethereistoenjoyDined on 6/30/2014Being a person of few words on any occasion, I will try to convey my opinion of Garcias Restaurant in as many words as possible. Our party had a very good meal. The portions were more than adequate, with take home boxes required on my part. The waiter was polite when taking our orders and in serving the meal. The atmosphere was not overbearing with loud music, which made conversation easily heard from one end of the long table we were seated at to the other end. The third sentence sums it up well. "We had a good meal and fellowship."Special Features:

Kenan represented me very successfully in a car accident/personal injury case. I was seriously injured and my insurance company was refusing to pay my bills without explanation. Kenan straightened them out, got my bills all paid, and eventually got me a very fair settlement for my injuries from the other driver's insurance company. He kept me informed throughout the process and I recommend him highly.
Kenan was fantastic and hopefully I will never have need for a lawyer again, but if I do I know whom I'll be going back to. When I went to Kenan I had been worried about my overall outcome and he was great. Kenan made me feel comfortable and answered all of my questions and explained everything in sufficient detail for me to understand my options. Kenan was also every straightforward as he laid out the potential pitfalls and the possible benefits to my case. Kenan was very realistic in the expectations he set and he met every one of them. His follow through with my case from start to finish was the thing things I personally liked the most. I highly recommend Kenan Isitt and his work.
Kenan not only helped me get custody of my daughter he was terrific all the way through. He is always there to answer my question no matter how silly they are. He even talked to me when he was on vacation. He explained the legal process every step of the way. He is not only my attorney but i am proud to call him my friend!

Thread: Tessa Felicity Jane?
July 2nd, 2013 12:09 PM #6
Tessa seems kind of flimsy to me compared to your other girls. I don't think it has the depth and history for me to be enthusiastic about it to a any great degree. However, I do love Tess for its Thomas Hardy literary connection but Tessa lacks something (backbone?). It reminds me of Gemma and Jenna. The names are nice enough but there's really no substance behind them. I prefer some of your other options like Hannah.All the best,
July 2nd, 2013 12:20 PM #8
AMAZING! It sounds so joyful and floaty but could easily work for a tomboy by being Tess.[ Ingo Julius ][ Igor John ][ Rory Judd ]

Tessa Felicity Jane is pretty. I like Tess Felicity Jane more, but Tessa is sweet. I like both Tess and Tessa more than the fuller Theresa, but the "A" on the end just seems so superfluous, and it doesn't really make sense for me to use a nn, just to give my daughter with a nicknamey name another nickname (Tess). So I've gone straight to what I love the best--Tess. I do think Tessa is usable on its own, though, and if you like it better than just Tess, I think it's beautiful. I don't know if you remember, but Tess Felicity was my Tess combo before I came across Tess Penelope, which is my current combo.Ashley

As the journey from Aguas Calientes to Cusco last night was a long and stressful one, when we arrived back in Cusco we all signed off so there was no farewell drink. Instead I went back to LOKI Hostel and got ready for Santiago where I am now.
I've only just got here. I'm staying at Bellavista Hostel which is in a neighbourhood of the same name. I'm getting a really good vibe so far. The hostel is really cool, as is the neighbourhood. Reminds me of Greenwich Village and that's saying something.
There's a barbecue on in the hostel tonight but my job is to research restaurants for you folk so that's what I'm off to do. Am sure I'll have room for a sausage or two when I get back though.

Kid Crafts: Easy Flower Experiment
Page 2
- Short drinking glasses
- Water
- Food coloring
- White flowers such as carnations,daisies, or dahlias (celery
may also be used)
X-Acto knife and gardening clippers
Magnifying glass
To conduct the experiment:
1. Fill two glasses with 2/3 cup of water each. Have your child pour half a vial of food coloring into each glass and mix. Let him choose two colors so there's a different shade in each glass.
2. Split the stem of a flower or the base of a celery stalk into two parts, and place one end in each glass. (If you prefer not to do any cutting, simply place a flower in each glass.) Trim the bottom of the stem so that the flower doesn't droop over the glass.
3. Ask your child to observe the flower with a magnifying glass. Within an hour, the veins of the stem will become colored by the food dye. The longer your child leaves the flower in the dyed water, the more color the flower will absorb. You can add to the learning by helping your child sketch the intensity of the flower's color at certain intervals (after two hours, four hours, and so on.)
4. Let him experiment with the placement of the flowers too. What happens if he leaves one on a windowsill? In a closet? Let him see that it's okay if the result isn't what he expects, Horstmeyer says: "Not even scientists know all the answers."

A Benton man was arrested Wednesday for allegedly not allowing a woman to leave her home and making threats against another individual.
Gary Kyle, 53, of Benton was charged with terroristic threatening, false imprisonment, aggravated assault and assault on a family member in connection with the incident, according to the Saline County jail inmate roster.

November 27, 2014
Malone, FL---The Malone High School community came together Thursday night for a celebration nearly four months in the making.
On February 27th, the Tigers won the 1A State title, the 14th in school history.
This evening, the players, coaches, school, and community came together as each team member received their own championship ring.
For the kids and coaches, getting that coveted piece of jewelry on their fingers becomes the latest lifelong memory in a season already full of them.
"It's really at the top because one of my biggest goals was before I try to reach the next level and college was to win a state championship ring and it's just big," says junior Antwain Johnson.
"It's real special to me," says senior Chai Baker. "It brought back the memories of being in that state championship game and knowing how much it meant to me and getting this ring is just a reminder. I'm kinda pumped up a little bit now."
"Oh, it's unreal. Just the sense of accomplishment," says head coach Steven Welch. "It's not so much the ring, as it is the attaining of it. Just the fact that we were able to accomplish a lofty goal, that's the most satisfactory part of it."
Coach Welch and Johnson will look to defend the title next year, while Baker is off to Oregon State to play for the Beavers.

Is the Network Connection icon showing on the taskbar next to the clock? If so right click on it and select troubleshoot problems OR select Open Network and Sharing Center - Change Adapter Settings - right click on your Adapter and click Diagnose
You should also look in Device Manager to see if any yellow exclamation mark next to your Network Adapter.

"Thoroughly impressed with this gorgeous birth announcement. It's both elegant & sweet - perfect for our baby girl! Paper & photo quality exceeded expectations. I appreciated the wonderful customer service as well. Couldn't recommend this chic card any more! It's truly beautiful."
"I ordered my first daughter's announcement cards and I was not happy with the quality. The matte finished was DIY quality but this card in the glossy version was perfection. Choose that option even if you like matte as it is not really glossy like photo print glossy. Pictures were great and cards were consistent. Will order again."
"Beautiful birth announcement. Good quality paper. I ended up needing more and the additional announcements were shipped out immediately. Excellent customer service- would definitely order other products."
"I used this for the birth announcements for my daughter and loved it!! Chic and elegant! All fam and friends had a compliment:)"
"My chosen card design complemented my chosen photos so the colours worked really well together as well as the photo composition. I couldn't be happier with the end product."

Ducati is aiming the new Multistrada 1200 at the heart of the BMW R1200GS but has given the motorcycle an ultra-modern twist and 150bhp.
The Multistrada is one of the most hotly-anticipated new motorcycle and MCN has been at the forefront of bringing news and pictures of the motorcycle as it has been developed over the past two years.
Our expecatations were already set at a high level over leaked information about the Multistrada but the actual specification list is even better than we dared hope for.There are two versions of the Multistrada 1200 – a standard version that can be specified with or without ABS and then a higher specification S.
The S can then be ordered in either Sport Edition or Touring Edition. The Sport has carbon fibre parts like engine covers, front air intakes, rear mudguard and spoilers.
The Touring has panniers, heated grips and a centre stand. The S also gets the Ohlins electronically adjustable suspension system.
MCN will be bringing all of the technical details of the new Multistrada 1200 on Wednesday along with inside information about the bike Ducati is pinning so much on being a success.

Poseurs bike then...
I looked at the MCN article, and when you look at "what you get as standard...", on the Ducati; they are bascially things that will not help you to cross continents with ease, but will help you to ride down the high street in style!
It simply isn't up to it - Italian build quality and no shaft drive. Be serious. It'll need to be a couple of grand less than the Beemer as a stock bike. £7,000 is about right for it.
14 November 2009 11:09
i reckon it is all down to the price if they make only a little bit cheaper than the bmw it will not sell so well just look at what you can get a second hand multistrada for now but saying that it looks ok but has to be a lot cheaper than the gs or it just will not sell

If Ducati cannot hold together without major electric and mechanical problems on a good condition road use, how the h*ll it could last in a bit rougher enviroment?
It might be a nice citybike, but to take that in wet roads/rough conditions, no thanks.
How do I know this? 5yrs experience on a very poor quality 999S.

Silver Needle "Yinzhen"
Starting at: $4.00
Truly the finest of all white teas, this
Silver Needle
tea is grown in Zhenghe in Fujian province, the center of white tea production in China. Only spring-picked buds, laid out on mats and air dried, are used to make the Silver Needle. It is one of the most beautiful teas with its white, downy appearance. Its taste is delicate, yet pronounced, with a long balanced sweetness.
Use 1 rounded teaspoon (3g) dried tea leaves per 6 ounces of spring water heated to 160° to 170° F. and steep for 3 minutes. This tea can handle multiple infusions; increase the steeping time for subsequent infusions, repeating until the flavor begins to fade.

by Jeremy J. GlowackiHaving read about the ceiling speaker aspect of Dolby's new Atmos commercial movie theater surround sound technology, I was very curious to experience it first hand during my visit to Dolby Laboratories headquarters in San Francisco this week. The first thing I learned after sitting down in the company's private screening room/mixing stage for a demo, was that Atmos was never intended to be a theme park attraction. The company is treating its new format very seriously and plans a full roll out of the new technology with the hopes that studios will embrace Atmos production tools and mixing techniques and that movie theater company will start retrofitting their best rooms first, with more to follow after that.

sub flooring removal question
i have torn out carpet and am replacing with bamboo flooring. there is a small portion of the subflooring (2 pieces) that i need to remove due to mold. both pieces are touching a wall and i can't figure out how to get the 2-3" piece next to the wall out. I have used a circular saw to remove the rest. do i have to remove the baseboard?
What's left is likely nailed under the wall, making removal impossible. There's no real reason to remove it. Just butt the new subfloor up against it.
that is the moldy part...
can you post a photo?
Remove the baseboard, use a reciprocatng saw to saw the moldy flooring right next to the wall, and then hammer-and-chisel the remaining moldy wood out.
(Don't try to pull out the baseboard nails. You will probably damage the baseboard. Pull them through as you carefully pry away the baseboard or sink the finish nails holding it with a small straight-shank punch the same size as the nails.)
This is definetly the bes tway.
Similar Problem
I don't mean to thread whore, but I have a very similar problem and thought that I'd ask here rather then make a new thread.
The only difference with my situation is that I don't have mold, my problem is cat urine. I am going to replace a section of subfloor against a wall, but I am afraid that the subfloor may have wicked it to the edge...which is under the wall frame bottom plate.
Should I bother trying to chissel it out, or would I be best to slap some odor sealer on the bit of subfloor under the frame bottom plate? Or could I save a bit and just smother the section with caulking (being that I would only be able to paint the edge of the effected peice)?
It may be better to incapsulate the odor with some sort of stain/odor blocker if it isn't too bad.

Comments about Uniflame Outdoor Log Hoop Wood Rack:
I bought this for my ski condo, to store wood on my deck. The directions aren't great but it was easy to assemble and seems sturdy enough to hold a decent amount of wood. Since this is hollow tubing, I don't understand why caps to cover the supporting stand's open ends were not included. While this is under a small roof, water would surely get inside the tubing within hours of service. I went to hardware store and got small black stoppers to use until I can find something better. Will also contact Hayneedle to see if I am missing some pieces.
It looks nice on the deck. I hope it holds up well.

Comments about Uniflame Outdoor Log Hoop Wood Rack:
It is a nice size log hoop for my small outdoor firepit on our patio. I wish their write up would have said what it was made of. It's hollow tubing, not solid. Which means it will rust out this winter. I would recomend this only if you want a small light duty indoor ring.

Comments about Uniflame Outdoor Log Hoop Wood Rack:
I love the product. The only problem that I had was that I wasn't strong enough to assemble the three parts of the rings together. A handyman had no problem...and the end result is terrific. It made a major eye-sore very attractive.
I always hate it when I buy something that I then need to pay to be assembled.

The Wilson Center Launches the Woodrow Wilson Foreign Policy Fellowship Program
Feb 28, 2013
"Mid-[level] to senior staffers stay on the Hill for a long time -- they are the staffers that members rely on. Maybe we can develop a professional cadre of informed bipartisan staff who will help the institution of Congress do much better policymaking. That's what the agenda is," Jane Harman said about the Wilson Center's new foreign policy fellowship program.

Mexico's Resilient Industrial Machine - Mexico Institute in the News
Feb 19, 2013
If these assumptions hold true, Wilson says, "144,000 new U.S. jobs could be created due to Mexico's economic growth in 2011." A modest figure, considering America's jobs shortage right now, Wilson concedes. "But that's with everything else being equal," he explains. "If we don't do anything else to stimulate trade, we can at least count on the growth rate to create jobs."
It's the Middle Class Not the Middle East
Feb 13, 2013
President Obama's first term contained no spectacular successes (save killing Osama bin Laden), but no spectacular failures either. And more than likely, that's what the president will settle for in a second, even as the Arab world burns and rogues like Iran and North Korea brandish new weapons writes Aaron David Miller.
Think Tank Urges "More Ambitious" U.S.-Mexican Agenda - Mexico Institute in the News
Feb 08, 2013

Feb 08, 2013
Andrew Selee of the Wilson Center noted that we might see a return of circular migration, which would benefit Mexican communities.

Education on the U.S.-Mexico Agenda? - Mexico Institute in the News (In Spanish)
Feb 04, 2013
A higher education initiative between the U.S.- Mexico governments can improve the relationship between the two countries. By creating a bilateral program that can facilitate the exchange of top students and professors from both countries, Mexican students could benefit from prestigious math and science programs in the United States, while American students could benefit from recognized language and cultural programs in Mexico. In the long run, this initiative could create a generation of more competitive professionals in both countries.

"This card is perfect for pre teen or really any age "girly girl" at heart. The colors are so vibrant. I chose a pearl top finish that gives a hint of shimmer. We also ordered the silver envelopes and matching address labels. They are awesome about letting you customize all these little details so it reflects your taste and is exactly what you want! My daughter loves these and was so exited to send them to her friends."
"After 8 years of using Tiny Prints, this was my first time using the Design Service. On this particular card there wasn't an online option for Text on the backside - I clicked on the Design Service and wrote out what I needed (which was directions for the parents of my guests) - Perfect - Excellent - Timely Within a day or two the Design Service emailed me and I had a Proof waiting for my approval. No changes needed - the Design Service was intuitive and quick. The team totally understood what I was attempting to achieve without much guidance. I need more of that in my life in general and was happy to have Tiny Prints do it so effortlessly."
"I loved the design of this invitation and thought it was perfect for my daughter's 13th Birthday party at the sugar factory. I only wish I had a little more room to include information, but the design team was able to accommodate that for me. The quality was excellent and I placed my order on a Sunday evening and with expedited shipping received it on Tuesday!"
"I love the textured paper it makes it truly interesting. My party theme was not pink and black and because of that I believe there should be more color options. The ecru background and envelopes truly give it a royal feeling. Arrived on time. Envelopes were not the right ones (probably my mistake) and they sent the correct ones for free."
"Paper quality was great..Perfect. Not too thin nor too thick. They are very professional, and communicate each step of the process with you. Loved it! Thanks so much. I'll be ordering all my invites, etc. from you."
