I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amec Foster Wheeler (Houston, TX) in May 2008
Interview
Submit resume and then contacted and scheduled for an interview. The interview was mostly about what the company did and its role in the industry. A couple of simple technical questions were asked about distillation troubleshooting and hydraulics. Very easy stuff. Then, a second interview directly after with similar questions and a couple behavioral questions. At the end of the second, the interviewer indicated that an offer would be very likely and contact would be in a week or two.
