I went through the Graduate Program recruitment in Fall of 2014. I started by applying to the program online in September and was sent two brief online assessments to complete. One tested personality-type decision making and the other basic math skills (the test is incredibly short in time though so difficult to complete). After passing this I completed a phone interview - focused on past experiences and CAR (capacity, achievment, relationship). I was then invited to a Shell Recruitment Day. The day itself was excellent. I completed the day with 5 others. The assessors were all employees at Shell and spent the whole day with us, rotating for each activity. We started with an online email simulation (mostly multiple choice and a short written assignment) and then a group case study activity. We completed a reflection interview regarding the two previous activities. There was then an individual case study (given some info, what decision would you make and why) and finally a general interview (very similar to the phone interview). I passed the Recruitment Day and was placed in a "pool of candidates" available for hire. At the beginning, it seemed very hopeful that I would be placed somewhere. For a while, updates were frequent and I was even sent a job description for a possible placement. Now (a year later), I have not received any updates in several months. I have heard of this happening to several of my classmates, successfully completing the recruitment only to not receive an offer. Recruitment Day was an excellent experience and I would definitely do it again, but the communication and follow-through has been less than great.

The interview process focses on behavioral assessments and technical screenings. Candidates are tested on the "CAR" method, focusing on safety, leadership, and on job competence through structured and in depth questions.
The first round is a recorded video interview. You need to record some videos based on their questions. There were 3 questions or me, which is not very unique. About your project, your interest in Shell.
I recently completed a video interview on HireVue, and the overall experience was pretty interesting. The platform presented a large number of psychological assessment questions along with several prompts focused on workplace morality and ethical decision-making. I appreciated that HireVue allowed unlimited time to record and re-record my video responses, which took a lot of the pressure off and made the process feel more flexible and less rushed.
Each portion of the interview was fairly in-depth and required thoughtful answers, so it ended up taking around 30 minutes per section. The combination of the structured assessments and the freedom to redo videos made the entire interview feel thorough but manageable.
