Interviewed Oct 2011 (took 1 week)
3 one-on-one interviews. The managers are extremely polite and made quite an impression. The workplace atmosphere seems very well-structured and organized. From conversations, you can tell that the company overall is a big proponent of ethics, and values safety and integrity. This is definitely one of the top employers, in my opinion, based on that fact that they treat themselves and others well. I would love to work with this company – unfortunately, not all the pieces are in place for me. I will definitely seek them out again in the future.

Interviewed Mar 2011 in San Ramon, CA (took a day)
Very straightforward one on one interviewing process, mostly behavioral-based questions, will ask things about the company such as: who do you think are our competitors, etc. recruiter will expect you to elaborate on your answers and demonstrate some knowledge about the oil and gas industry.
Expect some questions about your resume, activities that you did, why you did them, etc. Will ask if you are willing to relocate. If you have the opportunity, tell them as much stuff that you know about recent oil and gas events as possible – you should always do your research before walking into the interview room.

Interviewed Apr 2008 in Concord, CA (took a day)
I interviewed with them through an agency, the interview was about 20 minutes long and was regarding what I had done previously. Since this was my first position in the USA and out of college, I did not have much experience the interview focused on my studies. After that they conducted a backround check and drug test and about a week later I had the job.

Interviewed Jan 2008 (took 2 days)
Interview at college was very casual. The in house interview consisted of 3 1 on 1 interviews that were all behavioral and quantitative based. The in house interview was pretty difficult and stressful with the managers that you were interviewing with.
