The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at SLB in Nov 2015
Interview
Interviewed at a career fair at a conference, almost two weeks later heard back to do a second interview in Midland Tx. This interview was 3 days long. Had to give a presentation with other candidates, and for the first night just learned as much as possible about the company and position. The HR (former field engineers) were great and super personable. They could be tough though. Did a timed team project and it was a very long night. They're basically seeing your work ethic and if you can work long hours and how well you work with people. Second day you go out to an oil rigg and then later that evening is the exit interview. Only 10 mins long and basically ask what you're interested in and what type of field engineer you want to be. Got an offer about two weeks later.
1st round interview included short technical question, and telling about myself and the projects I worked on.
Not difficult/or hard, but just need to explain well enough to tell the logic process
It was an on campus hiring. First they shortlisted based on CV. Then second round was group discussion where we were given abstract topics like "Half filled glass of water" and were asked to discuss. This was also an eliminatory round. The final round was more of a HR round, they asked behavioural questions, few puzzles (very easy) and general knowledge questions
