I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Halliburton in Sept 2011
Interview
The interview was relatively easy. I received the interview through a campus career fair and was told to apply online through my university's career center. About a week later, I got an interview. I went to the info session that several Halliburton employees put on for us the day before my scheduled interview. Unfortunately, I had an exam and had to leave early.
The questions were typical interview questions. "Tell me about a good and bad decision you've made recently." Stuff like that. Overall, an easy interview with an easy going recruiter.
There are three days campus recruitment process. Starting from written test in day 1, FGD in day 2, and, short interview in day 3. FGD was pretty casual, you'll be given 15 minutes to discuss a case, and depends on when your turn on presenting is, 1-2 hours to solidate the case outside while waiting for presentation turn. If you pass, you'll get into user interview the next day.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Halliburton in Jun 2025
Interview
After passing the admin screening, I attended the psychometric/aptitude test at UPN “Veteran” Yogyakarta. The test was conducted entirely online on our own devices; the venue had weak mobile signal and there was no option to take the test on paper, so a lot of time was lost just connecting and loading questions.
