Hi Johnathan,

Congratulations on securing an interview with TotalEnergies. That’s a fantastic opportunity! The Fuel Card Executive Graduate Trainee Program will test both your commercial awareness and your transferable skills as a recent graduate.

Here’s how to prepare:

🔥 Likely Interview Questions

You can expect a mix of competency-based and commercial/industry-focused questions, such as:

1. “Tell me about yourself and why you want to work at TotalEnergies.”

   • Focus on your degree, transferable skills (communication, problem-solving, relationship building), and why TotalEnergies’ work in energy and sustainability excites you.

2. “What do you know about TotalEnergies and our fuel card business?”

   • Research their services, sustainability initiatives, global presence, and any recent news. Show you understand what a fuel card is and how it benefits corporate customers.

3. “Describe a time when you influenced or persuaded someone.”

   • Use the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result). Think of examples from university projects, part-time jobs, or volunteering.

4. “How would you build relationships with business customers?”

   • Talk about listening, understanding needs, providing solutions, and following up.

5. “Where do you see yourself in 3–5 years?”

   • Show ambition but stay realistic — mention growth within the company and taking on responsibility.

💡 Key Preparation Tips

• Research TotalEnergies: mission (multi-energy company, net zero by 2050), values (Safety, Respect for Each Other, Pioneer Spirit, Stand Together, Performance-Minded).

• Understand the role: fuel card sales = customer relationships, data-driven decisions, and commercial awareness.

• Prepare strong STAR answers: link your degree to transferable skills like problem-solving, empathy, resilience, and teamwork.

• Be commercially aware: understand fuel pricing, fleet management challenges, and why companies use fuel cards (cost control, security, reporting).
