I have some questions/ need advice:
1) Does anyone know when the SRD will be held this year?
2) Another thing, I'm thinking of changing jobs so I applied for Shell. I'd also like to apply to other companies, but I'm just afraid I won't be able to attend SRD if I've already landed other jobs.
Should I wait for Shell to contact me or should I simply get another job first while waiting?
3) If I've already started at a new job, let's say the salary is like RM4500, will Shell be willing to pay RM4500 for a new hire coming through SRD/graduate recruitment?

Yeap, I dont understand why people are too worried about outsourcing. Totally overreacting. The most important is its environment... t-shirt, jeans, slack... linient timing, HSSE and WLB rocks!!
Littleway, may I know who interviewed you and who is your hiring manager / boss / team leade?

I'm not sure about the SRD date but would you mind telling me what background do you have before I can answer your 3rd question? As for 2nd question, you may check the status of your application from Shell website if you are applyin via the website. It is pretty update about whether you are being considered for the job or otherwise.

It is pretty update about whether you are being considered for the job or otherwise. My background is in computer engineering. I've been working in software development for the past 3 years, but am thinking of doing something else by joining Shell, as I heard they offer various career paths that does not necessarily be related to my current background. I tried applying for the vacancies in SITI, but my app. was turned down.  I believe mainly because SITI deals with Windows-based development, and my current work deals more with networks and UNIX. Thanks in advance!

Thanks in advance! Sorry Naziaf, I'm not from IT field and I believe most of the people here can answer your question easily about how much you will be getting if you join Shell. For 3 yrs experience, I think Shell can easily match the salary of RM 4500

Thanks If you have applied the Internship through the website itself (www.shell.com), you may find out about the status of your application through the website itself by logging in with the username & password that you used while you filled up the application for this Internship. Then goto the "Application Status" and you will see the actual status of your application there. If you have applied the Internship through other method (eg. career fair), you will have to wait for them to call you in order to find out about the actual status. I had a bad experience with them last time before(they forgot to contact me although I had been shortlisted for 2nd interview until I called them up). If you can't wait any longer, you may send them a friendly reminder through email or you may call them up to check the status. Good luck

Hi guys,
Thank you very much for all the advise but I just got an email about my application being rejected.
Looks like I'll just have to try again 1 year from now. Better start setting a reminder in my phone...now where's that phone...oh crap, I forgot I just threw it at the wall (just kidding).

Good luck I applied through Internet and my application status still showing shortlisted. I think they forgot to called me though. Do you have any idea what email should I send them, cause I've sent quite a few yet still no reply.
