I applied through the school website and then talked with the hiring team. They asked me technical questions and about what I wanted to get out of the internship. After that, they made an offer. I went through background and drug screening, and then completed the summer intern program. I got to take a tour of a drilling rig and also traveled to North Dakota to see operations. Additionally, I worked on a summer project. Overall, it was a good learning experience.

We asked candidates to email their resumes to the head of Exploration. After about a month or two, we did phone interviews. Mentors called potential interns, and that phone call was the only interview. Within a week, mentors called back the potential hires to offer them a position.
