I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Halliburton (Brighton, CO) in Mar 2014
Interview
On Campus interview followed by an in- person 2 day tour/ interview process.

It was nice to get out of my town, go to a new place and actually see some field operations in the process.
