Getting to Know Chevron: A Day in the Life of a University Hire

The Getting to Know Chevron: A Day in the Life of a University Hire workshop is designed to provide students with an authentic look into the experiences of early-career professionals at Chevron. During this interactive panel discussion, attendees will hear from five Chevron employees who began their careers as Chevron interns and now support functions across Earth Science, Petroleum Engineering, and Information Technology. Panelists will share their career journeys, key decisions that shaped their professional paths, lessons learned along the way, and insights into transitioning from student to full-time professional.

 

Through personal stories and a live Q&A session, students will gain a deeper understanding of Chevron’s culture, values, and career opportunities while learning how to navigate their own educational and professional journeys. This session aims to inform, inspire, and empower students by showcasing real career paths and providing visibility into current opportunities within Chevron.
