It was a senior manager and current analyst interviewing. Essentially the Corporate Development office was looking to hire one Corporate Development Analyst to take over the current analyst. It's a 2 year contract where the analyst normally goes off to graduate school afterwards or to another job. They didn't state whether graduate school was covered by Halliburton or not. It's a 2 interview process. Initial interview at the university (they look at UT, SMU, Tulane, & Rice) and second interview at their office.

First round interview was on campus at SMU. Second/Final round interviews were at the corporate office in Houston. They invited six people from Tulane, SMU, & Texas A&M. Took us to dinner Wednesday night with interviews on Thursday morning. Half the development office was traveling so we only had 3, 30-minute interviews consecutively. Mostly behavioral questions (talk about your resume, strengths/weaknesses, Why should we hire you? Why do you want to work at Halliburton?) and two technical questions (Enterprise Value and extrapolate a balance sheet if sales increase 30%).
