Interviewed Oct 2011 in Houston, TX (took 2 days)
Baker Hughes has a very organized and thorough process. The initial interview was behavioral based, while the more rigorous 2 day interview consists of various activites that basically test your endurance, how you work in groups, and how well you fit in with the company. Just be yourself and do your best.

Interviewed Feb 2012 in Lubbock, TX (took a day)
Handed our resumes to the recruiter. Got selected for a 1:1 interview. The interview went well according to me, but I made a major mistake in the beginning itself. When the interviewer asked me "Do you know who I am?" all I could come up with is that "I know you are the software engineer." I think, the interviewer lost interest in me after that, and did not even write down my answers. Not surprisingly, I did not get a call back for the second round.
From, then on I have made a point to write down the name of every single interviewer and their basic information, the day before during the info sessions.
Thankfully, I got a phone interview with then again this time for a different position and that went well. Lets see when I get a call for the second round. Hoping for it.

Interviewed Feb 2012 in Houston, TX (took a day)
The whole interview process went pretty smooth and precise. Two interviewers and only one of them asked the questions. All questions were related to the resume and all behaviors questions. Just be yourself, prepare more about your previous working experience and it would be fine.

First of all I'm really thankful to all my friends who posted their experiences on this blog.
I applied online about two months back from now. Fortunately after repeated try i finally got a system generated mail from Bakerhughes.
It was a confirmation mail asking me to schedule the telephonic round.
keep in mind to take enough time in your hand to prepare yourself with there normal HR questions with as many examples as you can.
Almost all the questions that can be asked to you are posted on this blog. So do your homework and be ready for the day.
I fortunately cleared the telephonic round, it was a bit long(around 50 minutes) but was kinda interesting.
Initially she confirmed my academics details.
Later asked me Six questions :
Which is your Favorite subject and why?
Why you want to join Baker?
What do you know about Baker?
Tell me about an experience where you used your technical skills to solve a problem?What you did? what did you learned from the experiences?

Interviewed Apr 2012 in Broussard, LA (took 3 months)
Met with Baker Hughes recruiter during college career fair. Invited to on campus info session and the next day a 1:1 interview. After several weeks I was called, information was verbally confirmed from my resume and I was asked if I was still seeking full time position. Next I was put into consideration for round 2, the Baker Hughes Experience (BHE). After almost one month I was notified via phone of my offer to attend the BHE. Needed to fly to Houston the next week. Baker Hughes flew me from California to Texas, and I met about 35 other candidates from all over US with varying engineering degrees there. After 3 days of intense interviewing and introduction to the Baker Hughes culture 4 candidates were offered positions, so very glad to be one of them!
