How to get into Schlumberger?

[Sean143]

Being the largest oilfield company in the world schlumberger offers a pretty luctrative package to it's employees. Being a final year chemical engineering student I also want to somehow end up in a organisation like that.

So how do they hire employees, what are the kinds of skills they look for and what is the best pathway to getting a job there (for a Field Engineer)

Ps:If there are any employees from schlum. I would request them to please share their experience and some details like how many days they work? and for how many hours ?

Best bet would be to apply for an internship with Schlumberger while doing your last year of studies.
Back in 1999/2000 (when I graduated!), Schlumberger used to actively recruit from GIK / NUST. A lot of my friends got internships that way. Once you have get an internship, it makes it fairly easy to get a full time position once you complete your studies based on how you performed during your internship
