I know cases where people were notified they failed the first interview, but somehow were called again, so there might still be some hopes.

hey guys, how long does it takes for SHell to call you regarding the first interview

it might take them 10 days to inform you. sometimes faster, like mine. i was informed by the evening on the interview day. some even was informed 1 months later and still made it. anyway hope for the best. cheers

1 month for the first interview...argh...as days pass, i felt the chacnes are getting lower..lol
btw, will they contact u through email or by call?

Normally email i guess. when i did mine, i got an email that evening after the interview and a call the next morning to confirm my attendence to the SRD. when was your interview?

last thursday on 13/11

Well give them 10 days to look into it. dont give up... my SRD is nextweek..hope i can make it..

Hi guys,

I wanna ask some info, especially from those in Shell.

Can give some info on the training for Shell Graduate Engineers new hire?
Specifically offshore operations based in Miri.

Generally, what is the 1st year like?
What training have to go through etc?

Some insight would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Quasar,

For graduate engineers in Miri,they are classified as G group. They will undergo a very structured learning and development program starting from day 1 to apprx first 3-5 yrs in Shell.Those trainings cover all the necessary elements such as safety and health, corporate governance and technical (relevant to you). Assuming you r hired as OE (operation engineer), you will be based in platform under 2 weeks rotation ( 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off). However, since you are a G groupers, you will be rotated through other departments/functions as well like project, maintenance (maybe) throughout your development years. Your competency would be assessed monthly or quarterly by your supervisor and skillpool manager and/or HR manager. After 3-5 yrs, then you will be (depending on ur performance) promoted to job group (JG) 5 or 6.

Good luck

depster666 does it apply to those in commerce as well?

Similar approach across the board

Hi, thanks depster.

Anyway, can you elaborate a bit more on the Job Group (JG) 5 or 6 thingy?

What is it etc.

Thanks.

Career progression. U start from G, and depending on ur performance climb the rank to 6,5,4,3 etc... . Again, during your development yrs, your potential is evaluated. Hi-flyers will go straight from G to 5, average performers progress from G to 6.

Hi

My friend applied for shell graduate program in march was received a rejection email within few day, but few months later received call from shell, explaining the she was rejected earlier due to non availability of suitable position that time. And invited for interview.

She was successful at interview but again could not attend SRD due to prior commitment (even though interviewer personally call her saying they found her excellent candidate).

Later they contacted her again for another SRD, but she found position available is not of her interest and declined to attend, though she was told that that was last possible SRD for year (Singapore), and she is entitled to apply again next year if nothing else come up this year. but found online system she is not eligible to apply for a year.

Her on line status changed to "regretted".

I am wondering if someone could explain if:-

What is the difference between "rejected" and "regretted"?
Since missing two SRDs (although due to legitimate reason), would it effect her chance?
Can she mention her successful interview in her new application?
According to online status she is only able to apply after a year, but not sure if one year starts from date of application?


Best regards.

Hi TIPU,

as far as Im concerned, the word regretted and rejected refers to the actioned of the candidate. So, rejected means she rejected to go for an SRD, while regretted is either she failed the SRD or she doenst meet the requirement(s) for the assessment.

that's what i think la...

Hi Benar

Thanks for your reply, but it did not helps. It seems to other way round. (as they regretted that she was not coming for SRD).

As she is the one who informed them about her non availability for SRDs twice (due to prior commitments, non interest of position avaibale at that time).

She was told that though it is last SRD for the year but they would call her again if any position become available (withing this year and she needed to repply if nothing happen this years).

I hope some one who has real knowledge could clarify this.

OMG, i jst saw the email notifying that i failed the first interview.. what the heck, i thought the interview was one of the smoothest i've ever done.. sigh, i think i might answer the last part wrongly good luck to those who's going to interview!!!!!

hey i passed my SRD.. well it wasnt that tough as i thought. well for those who are attending their SRD, dont worry.. just be cool and dont get nervous. take it like an assignment presentation... all the best to those goin for their SRD
