Hello everyone,

just finish the level 2 online assessment for grad program last week and currently waiting for the outcome, it has been 7 working days...
argh! just want to know my result and i quickly move on from there! (just want to quickly quit my current job!)

btw, for a person who enter grad program, will they be put into the sector/dept that they have selected in level 1 online assessment? or they will judge which sector/dept is best for the person after that person passed the interview? thank you!

Applied for the fresh grad program and after the first two assessments (multiple choice quiz) online, I received an email stating I will be called for an interview.

However, they say a coordinator will call me soon to arrange the interview's date and time. Do any of you know how long this normally takes? :hmmm

i am waiting as well... laugh.gif

Tip for the interview:
They're all behavioural questions and they really drill you on your past experiences.

Questions were along the lines of 'tell me a time you handled a difficult task/challenge', 'tell me a time you had to influence someone to do something' etc etc.

And you need to be specific - my interviewer asked a lot of follow up questions to my answers.
Good luck!

Thx for the tips! but i think that depends on the interviewer.

Good luck to the both of us then smile.gif When did you receive your notification?

I received mine yesterday too smile.gif Do update me if the you get an email stating when and where you can go for the interview yea ?smile.gif

Also, i think those questions are becoming more and more common these days. I was asked "If you could be an animal, which would i be?" in my previous interview at a different company. Weird psychological questions...

sure! laugh.gif
have to study up on top common questions that an interviewer will ask then

kind of weird, instead of calling me, they send me an email with a redirect link to pick a schedule for my interview, and my interviewer is from (comm and tech?) meaning i am going to get an interview about an IT position?

oh crap...dont really wish to be in IT anymore after the experience that i'm having now at my current company sad.gif

anyway...attending the interview next wed, all the best to myself, and hope that no more programmer job!!!

btw, where is shell house KL? reachable by public transport? hmm.gif

Yes that's how they let you pick the time slot for your interview. The normal procedure. And no whoever interviewing you has nothing to do with which department you're heading to. Usually they will encourage you to take LRT to somewhere near and then take a cab from there, but driving is a much better choice honestly. They will reimburse your expenses for the SRD round but not the interview. So good luck and all the best!

thanks for the info notworthy.gif

Hi, crawled thru the post and ought to share my application experience here:

I'm currently working in Singapore,

Online assessment 1: 30 March (was busy so delayed until 3rd of Apr to do it)
Online assessment 2: 4 April
no news after that (I kinda forgotten about it).. then I received an email from shell again and told me this:
"we are sorry to inform you that at present we only have IT related vacancies which could match your degree profile, would you be interested?"

and listed several roles + descriptions for me.. was too busy to reply them at that time and then I received the F2F interview notice on Apr 29
F2F interview - Apr 30

Since I was in Singapore, they scheduled a telephone interview for me and asked me to attend on the very second day =.=

Started to do some research on F2F interviews and alot of people was talking about the final stage of F2F they will throw out 4 options of open topic discussions.
But for my case it didn't happen, I had like 8~10 questions asked:
all were like this:
Tell me a time when you....
Tell me a time when you have to...
Tell me a time when you faced a problem...
Tell me a time how you reacted in a situation...
bla bla bla..
in the end they asked me why I wanted to join Shell.

was easier than I expected, you don't really need to prepare for this, just be genuinely honest with your experience smile.gif

Yesterday night I received my SRD invitation. But didn't tell me the date time:
At the moment we are dealing with a high number of applications, and therefore you may experience a delay in receiving a date and time for your final assessment

Hope this helps other that are currently applying, and wish you all good luck smile.gif

Same question with the candidate above, how often is the SRD in Shell Malaysia?
*
my 1st interview questions were similar to urs, now waiting for my result. Hopefully i can proceed to the next stage.

Mine took about a month, but the interviewer told me that i would be informed within 14 days whether i will proceed to the next stage, but i guess it got delayed bcoz of the high number of applicants.

one more thing i find odd, the interviewer did share with me although i didnt ask, the salary and some details of the graduate engineer position. is this common?
did any1 else experience the same.

1 month?! man...i cant wait for so long...i'm suffering with my current job alre sad.gif

way more than that, i'm just asking because it seems like a new added to SRD compare to previous SRD
as from what i read from this thread

most of the replies are got here are more on 1st interview rather than the 2nd one (SRD), at least for what i found out, mind to tell which one talks about the experience for SRD?
