I got as far as the Final Assessment and I had a very positive experience. It was a more 'personal' process than with most other companies and the recruiter who I spoke to on the phone multiple times was friendly and very helpful. The final assessment stage was all done virtually (instead of physically attending an assessment centre) which lasted 2 hours. It was challenging but interesting! The first part consisted of a presentation and the second part was an interview with a chance to ask questions at the end. I received feedback within less than 24 hours! The feedback was very positive and useful. I do feel like Shell are looking for a complete package, however, rather than someone with potential. Feedback suggested that I showed evidence for 2 out of 3 of their values (community and environment) but not so much on profit-making. It's a shame because I am quick to learn and adaptable so feel like I could easily tick the box for their first value if they'd given me a chance!

Straightforward video interview after completing the online assessment and situational judgement test. Questions focused on motivations, teamwork and handling challenges, with clear guidance on timing and format provided through the Shell graduate recruitment portal.
