Interviewed Aug 2010 in Houston, TX (took 4 months)
It takes a long, long time to go through the process and the background check is very thorough. Sometimes, it seems as if there are lot of hurdles to cross (and there are) but Aramco has a process that works. The interview and information session went well and if they are really interested, you get a call back rather quickly after interview. In my case, I got an offer within a week of the interview. The information session is spot on as they do a great job of describing life in Saudi Arabia. The staff at Aramco Services is very good and they are very pleasant and they do a good job of working for you. If you are going through the process, be patient...it will eventually happen. The waiting is the most agonizing part of the process. Interview is fairly standard and just be sure you know your job and you'll get an offer. They know if you have been doing the job through your answers so apply for something you are good at. Best wishes and hope to see you here after the process!

I was able to negotiate without appearing to be greedy. I had a counteroffer from my employer and Aramco was good about revising my offer.

Interviewed Jun 2009 in Dhahran (Saudi Arabia) (took a day)
When I submitted the materials required for job, which included a transcript, they were immediately excited to know that I was studying actuarial science. I got a phone class a few days later asking me what an actuarial could to the improve the company's financial performance. I told them in what frontiers actuarial can be applied to for a large oil company. (Which was basically to insure against certain risks that frontier could be exposed to). I got the job then and there, in the health and benefits section.

Interviewed Nov 2010 (took a day)
The interview was done by two technical Engineers at EXPEC Aramco. It was mostly technical. They technically discussed my previous projects and academics. It was an average interview since i know most of the work I have done before. It can get a bit challenging sometimes with few question.

Interviewed Apr 2009 (took 1+ week)
I was very disappointed. I had several interviews, and the interviews with the individuals I would have worked with were positive. It was the last interview with somebody very high and this person had a very cold demeanor. I suppose it was for the best though.
It seems to me that they are not sure what they are looking for based on the fact that they told me this was a new position and they didn't have specifics for the position. As I watch what is going on with their job postings, I don't think they know what they want.
