      Bureaucratic
      As an employee you have to accept that you are just a cog in a wheel.
      It doesn't take much at all to get fired.

      Support Technician Interview

      Anonymous Employee in Houston, TX
      Accepted Offer
      Neutral Experience
      Easy Interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5+ months. I interviewed at Nabors Industries (Houston, TX).

      Interview

      It took HR approximately 4 months to contact me for an interview. The interview was very relaxed and not much was discussed about technical abilities. More was discussed about if my availability was flexible. I was offered a position almost a month later with surprisingly generous compensation package so I took it.

      Interview Questions

      • Would you be willing to work weekends? Do you know how to ping a computer?   Answer Question

      Negotiation

      Since they offered a reasonable salary, I accepted.
