Initially had a short (10 minute phone interview), which was very basic and mainly to assess your willingness to work offshore. Was then invited to a day-long recruitment session. This kicked off with a company presentation which was very open and outlined the pros and cons of an offshore lifestyle. This was followed by each candidate giving a 3-4 minute personal presentation and a aptitude test which covered geology, physics, maths, logic etc. There was then a approx 30min one on one interview. This was fairly relaxed, focused mainly on your motivations for working offshore and a brief CV run through. The running theme throughout the day was to determine who was cut out for a tough offshore lifestyle. The hiring managers were very down to earth and approachable throughout the day.

Interview started with basic questions about myself, other questions associated with basic geology and science knowledge. They also ask questions about past experience (if you have any). The selected candidates are then passed into the second round (CBT)
