Why join Schlumberger? As if you need more persuasion, here are four good reasons: World-class technical excellence Our whole environment is built on technology. Work in oil exploration and production acquiring data on a seismic boat or from an oil rig, or you could be making accurate, informed decisions in one of our icenter*facilities. This secure, networked collaboration and virtual reality visualization center enables multidisciplinary teams to work together and share complex data locally and remotely. Wherever you work, you’ll be making daily use of the Schlumberger Information Network (SINet).one of the largest and most advanced networks in existence. We are meeting business challenges in every sector by combining specialized technologies, domain expertise and global infrastructure to enable digital enterprises through a suite of integrated connectivity and security solutions. Also at your disposal will be global satellite coverage, high-speed networks, secured collaborative communities and wireless enterprise applications. We invest more than $1.5 million in research and product development every single day, so think how much we could be investing in your R&D career. You could be working on new drilling processes in Beijing (China), secure on-line payment systems in Austin (Texas),or real-time energy management in Grenoble (France). Scientific and technical experts developing advanced technology are essential to Schlumberger success. You’ll measure yours in terms of the high profile challenges you meet.
Schlumberger may be global in stature, but you’ll never feel lost in a big organization, you’ll always be part of a team. Early challenges will come with the full support of a worldwide network of colleagues. Like Hisayo, a Software Engineer in Fuchinobe, Japan you’ll take “a key role in delivering products of real commercial value from the first day”. Like Joyce, who’s risen to the role of Senior Research Scientist in Ridgefield, Connecticut in just 18months, you’ll see the true value of continuous learning, Prove yourself and you’ll be recognized and rewarded. Within a matter of months you could be operating in the field, or have responsibility in a large IT project-succeeding on your own initiative, but never alone. Multi-directional career development Throughout your career, training will support you. You’ll plot and follow a career development plan with your manager, then check your progress every few years through a Career Orientation Review. Even after you have completed two or three years of initial training you will be encouraged to select more courses to enrich your knowledge and expertise. In addition to conventional class-based courses you’ll benefit from on-line and distance learning in both technical disciplines and management skills. Day-to-day, through In Touch Support.com, you’ll be learning more every single minute. A 24-hour global initiative for capturing, managing and sharing knowledge, the In Touch program allows us to apply everywhere what is learned anywhere. For example, a field engineer working on an exploration well in Nigeria can ask for support at anytime through an e-mail to the In Touch helpdesk and receive a response from a colleague based in France or in Venezuela shortly after. Wherever you join us, you will not be limited to one business line. Free movement helps us all share knowledge. So we encourage “3D”progression, which could be a combination of moving in into a new geographic location, new business function or new role. You can plot your next challenge through on-line career development planning, or it may come as an unexpected opportunity. Our intranet-based Career Center provides a channel to express job preferences and the tools to shape your own career path. Here you can interact with a Web-based community of colleagues sharing their career profiles and personal aspirations while creatively developing your own potential. Through this innovative system, every personnel manager across our global business will have access to your career preferences, so there will be greater opportunity to move your career forward in all kinds of directions. Move between countries and cultures Our global approach is reflected in every team-you’ll find colleagues from all over the world (140 nationalities are represented in our company)wherever you work. Even though you are a new graduate, you could be working literally anywhere (close to home, in your home-country or internationally)for a wide spectrum of customers ranging from oil and energy to finance and transport. As long as you can speak English, your voice vill be heard. Through SINET, you’ll be part of a globally interactive community from day one. During your training, you can get involved in Inter Change forums allowing you to share your early experiences with colleagues worldwide. And through our Eureka initiative, you’ll be a very real member of a virtual technical community of specialists that spans every comer of our business and the globe. We’ll expect you to do more than succeed.
