I applied through university. The process took 6+ months. I interviewed at SLB (Novosibirsk) in Jun 2009
Interview
Hiring process is a long chain of different interviews and exams.
Usually after the submission of your resume on the site slb.com you will be asked to come for an interview, where the recruiter will decide either to proceed with you further or decline you as a candidate at that step.
After there a series of interviews would tae place such as team games to define your psycological strength and intelectual abilities.
Final interview could be carried on a several times in order to match the opened vacancies and you as a candidate.

It was an on campus hiring. First they shortlisted based on CV. Then second round was group discussion where we were given abstract topics like "Half filled glass of water" and were asked to discuss. This was also an eliminatory round. The final round was more of a HR round, they asked behavioural questions, few puzzles (very easy) and general knowledge questions
