      Application

      I applied through university. I interviewed at SLB

      It is very smooth process. Spoke with a senior engineer. He didn't ask me about technical question, quite surprise about it. All questions are behavior questions. Total time is about 1 hour.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at SLB (Columbus, OH) in Sept 2013

      Interview

      I attended the career fair held at my university and met Schlumberger. I got called for an on-campus interview the following week. The lady who interviewed me was from the design team with an interest in materials and my background is also in design and analysis with an interest in material Science. She asked me to draw the stress-strain curve for steels, then Aluminum (With a comparative reasoning of its plot versus steels plot). Her background was polymers, so she tried asking a couple of polymer related questions

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      My interviewer showed me a random drawing of some part that Schlumberger either produces or sources. She asked me what that part was used for. After I gave an answer (Which was wrong), she explained what the component was used for.She asked me how it could be manufactured, what material could be used, which operating point in the stress-strain curve the material should be when it is fully loaded etc.
