I applied through university. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Halliburton in Dec 2014
Interview
Two interviews. First was a one on one interview with a employee who was performing the same job I would be doing. Second interview Halliburton brought me out to one of their locations for two days, gave me a tour of the facility, a detail info session about the company and what it is like to work for them, then a quick exit interview. Overall a fun and easy process.

If you pass, you'll get into user interview the next day.
