The process took 3 days. I interviewed at SLB in Jul 2011
Interview
I just got done a few hours ago with my phone interview. I was told immediately after the phone interview that they'd like to invite me to the second round of interviews and then had an email in my inbox with details less than 15 minutes later.
The recruiter and I had been trying to get in touch with each other for about three weeks and finally did so today. She was very nice and friendly, and she was a field engineer herself and was really knowledgeable. She was sometimes hard to understand because she had a heavy accent, but she didn't seem offended or have any issues with repeating the questions when I asked.
What is your perception of the field engineer job? Why do you think you're a good fit for it? What activities do you enjoy outdoors? Would you prefer to be in a cold or hot climate?
You have 7 tennis balls that look exactly the same; one weighs slightly less than the other 6. If you can only use a scale twice before the calibration is off, how can you figure out which one is the oddball?
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
