I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Patterson-UTI Drilling (Midland, TX) in May 2014
Interview
All interview questions are related to safety. You will be asked to describe what safety means to you. You will be asked to give examples of past employment, safety related issues and how you dealt with them.
Very clear instructions during the entire process. Quick email responses. A hiring event took me about 4 hrs to complete. Hair and urine sample for drug testing. Background check takes awhile. So don’t quit your job just yet when you go to the event. When you complete the background they will ask when you are available to start.
