I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at SLB in Nov 2008
Interview
I was asked to make a presentation of my past work experience in front of around 6 people. They were very receptive and inquisitive.Though my work experience was not the same as their current requirement, they considered me. The I had three 1:1 interviews which were more like discussions. Overall impression was good. They were ready to take up a person based on his/her aptitude rather than being stringent on exact experience match.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The fact that they asked a relatively junior person to present before quite senior people, was daunting.
