QUESTION 4 OF 30

This role requires extensive knowledge of pipeline systems and oil well machinery. How well do you understand this complicated equipment?

To fully understand pipeline systems and oil well machinery, you will need to have many years' experience in the industry. Briefly discuss with the interviewer how comfortable you are on these topics. Be sure to list any courses that you have taken on these topics.

"I have studied pipeline systems for some time now, and have worked in the oil industry for approximately eight years. There are always new things to learn, as the industry is ever-evolving; however, I would rate my knowledge at an intermediate to advanced level. If there is any coursework that you recommend I take before starting with Phillips 66, I would be happy to comply."

Anonymous Answer

I have worked in oil and gas for over five years, so I have a pretty good understanding of it, but there are always things to learn.

Kristine's Feedback

Good start. While you have an impressive 5 years in the industry, you downplay your experience and knowledge. Try revising your answer to more clearly state your level of knowledge and familiarity with pipeline systems and oil well machinery. You want your interviewer to feel confident you have the background and expertise needed to thrive in the role.
