For intern candidates at Schlumberger (SLB), the interview process generally includes both Technical and HR rounds. The interview process tends to be slightly less intense compared to full-time positions, but it still evaluates core competencies and fit within the company. Here's what you can expect in both types of interviews: Technical Interview for Interns: The technical interview is focused on your academic knowledge, problem-solving skills, and any relevant internship or project experience. Depending on your area of study (e.g., Mechanical Engineering, Petroleum Engineering, Computer Science), the questions will be tailored accordingly. What to Expect: 1. Core Subject Questions: Engineering Interns: You may be asked about core subjects like thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, materials science, or reservoir engineering, depending on your field. Computer Science/Software Interns: Questions may involve coding, algorithms, data structures, and problem-solving. You could also be asked to solve coding challenges. Other Technical Fields: Expect questions related to your major and its relevance to SLB's operations (e.g., geology, electrical engineering, etc.). 2. Projects/Internship Experience: Be prepared to discuss any academic projects or internships you have done in detail. Explain your role, how you approached the problem, and what you learned. 3. Problem-Solving Questions: You might be given technical scenarios or problems to solve on the spot. This could include anything from designing a system to optimizing a process. 4. Field-Specific Knowledge: For roles related to oil and gas, there might be questions about the industry, oil field services, or drilling operations. 5. Basic Coding Skills (for IT roles): If applying for a software-related internship, you could face coding exercises on platforms like HackerRank or be asked to write code live during the interview. Preparation Tips: Revise your academic coursework, especially subjects related to the job you’re applying for. Be ready to explain technical concepts and your project work. Practice problem-solving and coding (if applicable to your field). --- HR Interview for Interns: The HR interview typically assesses your soft skills, cultural fit, and motivation for applying to SLB. It’s also a chance for the interviewer to gauge how well you might fit into the company’s culture and work environment. What to Expect: 1. General Background Questions: Questions like “Tell me about yourself” or “Walk me through your resume” are common. Be prepared to discuss your academic achievements, any internships or projects, and your career aspirations. 2. Why SLB? Expect questions about why you want to work at Schlumberger.
