(Postingan ini nyambung dari postingan gw yang sebelumnyadisini. Isinya tentang garis besar kerjaan di Schlumberger nanti).Ada temen gw sesama TI 07 kemarin nanya, Yan, masuk Schlumberger tesnya apa aja sih? Kuncinya biar bisa masuk apa?Oke, buat menjawab pertanyaan-pertanyaan model gitu, gw mau share disini tentang tes masuk Schlumberger buat temen-temen yang ada keinginan buat masuk kesini. Gw cerita tentang tes yang gw kejadian di gw aja ya. Karena selama ini tes masuknya ya gitu-gitu aja. Kalau emang beda, berarti ada perubahan. Basically, ada 6 tahap tes buat masuk Schlumberger : mini interview, academic test, forum group discussion, human resources interview, user interview, dan medical check-up. Gw sempet juga konsultasi sama om Robert, temennya si papa tentang test Schlumberger ini. The man was in the company for 15 years, so youll get a credible resource. Sekalian nanti gw kasih tips dari tiap-tiap tahapannya. Tips ini hasil diskusi gw sama om Robert. Sekarang ayo kita bahas satu-satu.Mini InterviewMini interview ini bener-bener mini. Di interview ini bisa dibilang juga nasib ikut ambil andil. Di tahap ini, peserta disuruh ambil 1 dari sekian banyak kartu yang isinya satu pertanyaan non-technical dalam bahasa inggris. Terus lo akan disuruh jawab pertanyaan itu setelah 1 atau 2 menit waktu buat mikir. Contoh pertanyaannya, What do you think about attitude?, atau The rig failed, and it needs to be repaired in 1 months. So, you have 1 months off. What will you do? Gw nggak tau penilaian pastinya gimana. Tapi di tes ini banyak yang gugur. The HR have cunning eyes guys. Be careful.Tips: Stand-out in the crowd, berdandan ala orang lapangan tapi rapih (nggak perlu baju yang terlalu formal, cukup kemeja & celana jeans), postur jalan tegap, jabat tangan dengan rigid. Selama interview, pandangan mata lurus kedepan, pede tapi nggak sombong, tetep senyum tapi jangan berlebihan, jawab pertanyaannya dengan nada santai tapi lurus teratur, nggak gagap, dan jangan panik. Ada baiknya latihan ngomong sendiri didepan kaca. Konten jawaban lo juga mempengaruhi menurut gw, jadi coba berfikir cepat. Oia, ini perlengkapan standard buat semua jenis interview nantinya. Jadi semua interview perlu ini.Academic TestTes akademik ini tes yang gw lakuin dengan sangat kurang persiapan. Gw nggak tau kalau ternyata tes ini ada. Isi tesnya matematika dasar, fisika dasar, fisika power, dan kemampuan ruang. Nggak begitu banyak hitungan disini teruma di soal fisika. Kebanyakan logika dasar aja. Fisika power itu isinya tentang kelistrikan, dan gw cuma ngisi 3/4 dari total semua soal fisika power. Soal kemampuan ruang ini kita dikasih suatu bentuk, jadi kita harus bisa bikin proyeksi 3 dimensinya atau kita disuruh ngebagi ruang itu jadi 2 bagian yang identik. Imajinasi megang peranan penting disini. Buat anak TI-ITB, ini mirip-mirip kayak mata kuliah DPTI kok.Tips: Santai aja ngerjainnya, usahain isi yang kemampuan ruang dulu soalnya porsinya gede, dan soalnya sedikit (cuma 2 kalau nggak salah).Forum Group DiscussionFGD jaman gw itu kita semacem kerja kelompok (dalam tim) buat ngebangun rig dari kertas dan ada aturan-aturan tertentu buat penilaiannya. Di job-fair ITB, test hari pertama cuma sampe tahap ini aja.Tips: Aktif yang kontributif itu jadi poin penilaian besar. Paling nggak itu yang bisa ditebak jadi salah satu poin penilaian. Selebihnya itu tergantung penguji.HR InterviewIsi interview-nya cuma ditanya apapun yang ada di CV lo. Jawab aja dengan jujur, tapi dikemas dengan baik.Tips: Contoh pertanyaan yang berat, Kenapa IP kamu mepet?, atau, Kenapa kamu lulus lebih dari 4 tahun? buat yang punya masalah itu, jangan kuatir. Bukan berarti peluang lo ketutup kok. Gw punya 2 masalah itu *curhat* dan gw ada disini sekarang. Tapi kemas jawaban lo dengan baik dan menarik.User InterviewIni interview yang ngebolak-balik hari gw dan bikin gw ngerasa kalau gw fix nggak keterima. Interview ini kemampuan argumen lo diuji. Lo harus tau interview lo buat segmen apa, dan lo harus tau requirement segmen lo apa. Jangan ikuin orang-orang semacem gw yang nggak tau apa-apa waktu dateng buat user interview. Lo harus bisa berfikir cepat, ngeles-ngeles sedikit, kalau bisa ungkapin dan hubung-hubungin pengalaman lo (mau itu akademik atau keorganisasian) seolah-olah itu yang dicari sama interviewer. Hahahaha. Agak tricky emang.Tips: Cari kelemahan & kekuatan diri lo sendiri. Paling nggak lo punya 3 masing-masing. Dan carilah kelemahan dan kekuatan yang dikemas dengan baik dan seolah-olah kelemahan lo bisa ditanggulangin atau bahkan bisa jadi benefit buat perusahaan. Latih lagi jawaban lo biar lo lancar. Pertanyaan ini jarang keluar, tapi kata om robert vital dan bisa jadi faktor penting buat decission making.Medical Check-UpNggak ada yang perlu gw jelasin dari ini. Yang takut jarum suntik, Brace yourself. Hahahaha.Tips: Say no to drugs. Apa lagi? Hahahaha.Who we AreWith a history and culture of science and innovation, were the worlds largest oilfield services company.
