I know there was a thread about a month ago about what to expect with the interviewing process.. Well I'm through the first round and I'm going to Duncan, OK tomorrow for the second round/site visit. Has anybody gone through this process? I feel good about it, just looking for a little info on what to expect..
Deets: I'm in mechanical eng. Position is Associate Technology Professional (design engineer basically) in Duncan, OK. Dinner and site visit tomorrow and 5 - 45 minute interviews on Wednesday.

base salary starts in the mid 50s but grows pretty quickly. There's also bonuses for every job you go on and extra per diem on most jobs. Odds are, your first year, you'd make around 65-70k and make 100k+ within 5 years.

I actually work for them and am up here in Duncan for some training right now. I started as a field engineer in Lafayette.... but now work in the office in nola. Sounds like your interviewing for more of a R&D position vs true field engineer. I don't know much about their structure. Good company though.... I've been here 3 years and can't really complain.

My first job interview was with the CEO of a small company. I have another interview with the Vice President of another company coming up. I wish most of my interviews are that easy

I believe that interview is a little more intense than the field engineer one. I'll try to give more info when I get to the office..

Don't know much about the design engineer side. Especially up in Duncan. Never worked with them much. I really don't even know what the pay and oppurtunity for upward movement is. In the field, you would be in the mid 60's with the bonuses you get your first year. Then you get a car allowance and 10% raise that put's you in the 70's after that. Big money and raises come when you take jobs outside of the engineering group, or when you move to one of the majors.

one of my fellow engineers interviewed for that one, but ended up taking the field engineering one here in Lafayette. he said it was more intense, as in longer interview once you got up to Duncan.
Just remember Duncan is a small town, but has its bright spots. You can live there pretty cheap and save a boat load of cash. Keep that in mind when you are making a decision.

I have a buddy who got an engineering job with Haliburton after graduating from the Citadel. They moved him to west Texas where he stayed a total of 3 months before quitting as there is nothing in west Texas. Seemed like a waste to me.

Hint: Download their most recent annual report and read it.
Repeat some of what you learn from it to the people interviewing you, such as new initiatives by the company, the president's name, locations, earnings, recent achievements, corporate goals...that sort of thing.
That is the kind of thing that would make you stand out in their mind.

Best of luck. I interviewed with Schlumberger a couple months back and remember thinking I crushed it. Didn't get a round two interview though

One of my best friends works for Halliburton as a field engineer and graduated with a petroleum engineering degree. About 2 years ago when he first started working for them he was making around $70k. Hes 25 now. He works absolutely ridiculous hours.

I did the Schlumberger field position interview in Lafayette.
It was the most intense 2 day interview I went on. They purposely stress you out to see how you react and I laugh about it now.
I would imagine a R&D position interview would be much different.
