The number you see in the middle of the doughnut pie chart is the simple average of these scores. If you hover over the various sections of the donut, you will see the % breakdown of each score given.

The percentile score in the title is calculated across the entire Company Database and uses an adjusted score based on Bayesian Estimates (to account for companies that have few interview insights). Simply put, as a company gets more reviews, the confidence of a "true score" increases so it is pulled closer to its simple average and away from the average of the entire dataset.

Interview
I applied for a risk analyst position at Total. I applied through their website. 3 weeks later I got a phone call from the HR, which was conducted in French. She asked about my qualifications and background (I have both a quantitative and a petroleum engineering background), why I decided to apply for this job, tested my English skills (had to do a quick school project description in English for 3 minutes) and asked if I was able to code.
Interview Questions
Not really hard. Total likes to hire from IFP (French Petroleum Institute) and it was more of a conversation than a real interview. The phone call is more of a formality to get a second interview with a manager, who will take the real decision.

Among the questions I had:
1/ Why Totsa?
2/ Why this position?
3/ As a petroleum engineer, why did you choose to apply for a finance position instead of going in the upstream industry?
4/ What were my quantitative experiences?
5/ Was I able to code? In which language?
