Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Interviewers don't know how to judge experienced people. Their judging skills resonate with college fresh outs. They don't know what questions to ask to experienced hires. Reason lies in the fact, they are very new for experienced people do they don't know how to handle and set up within the team. Just be prepared with basic questions considering you are from college fresh out even though you are experienced. They judge on presentation skills a lot although they are themselves weak at it. They ask for ppt in the interview round. If you are experienced, don't join. No training is provided here, so whatever skillsets you have earned from different industries it will be exploited and finally diluted. You will forget even the basics as it is not widely used in SLB. Here, only generic knowledge is required. They brand it as a mostly are IITians and NITians, that's true for the field location. SLB STSI is a retirement bed for the field people, so people mostly from different industries, who have joined here are the trainers but not given respect, salary for the exploitation they go through. It's a red flag for experienced people. Don't join SLB STSI- It is a service sector.
