Why do u ask, as far as I know no commercial graduate have even been invited to a test yet, or do u know otherwise?
Commercial Graduates have been invited for 2 interviews, of which I was part of.
So, we are awaiting the final decision I guess
Pls clarify were the commercial grads interview at the same time with those of the engineering and science guys? When did u apply? I applied since march this yr and my application status has been changing from shortlisted to under review since then?
May I ask why didn't anybody inform this forum when the commercial interviews were on, I had previously posted about when will commercial grads start and nobody really answered.
Na wao...what criteria is Shell even using to invite candidates. It looks like there is some underground runs going on. @godychuk...please how many of you were invited for interviews, and what did you study. I can't imagine that I was not invited since I studied energy economics at master's level. This is all so surprising.
My brother,
While I appreciate your concern and surprise, I would also like to let you know that there might have been other applicants with PhDs in Petroleum Economics, Petroleum Management, Energy Marketing and co from the world's best schools. One cannot rule out this possibility.Things are really, really competitive nowadays my brother. However, I know that nothing can stop a person when his time comes. Let's keep trying. Let's keep the hope alive! e go soon reach our turn too.
Yours truly,
a poster on the banking and finance section.
For technical graduates it was a medical invite after the SRD. Am not sure how it will work for you guys but i think its almost the same. The website will give you the answer, they actually follow the pattern set out there. I remember that godychuk actually informed the house when he went for his interview.
@babestell how are u enjoying ur job?
lol! bro mouth no fit talk am o!
Thanks Ighoeve. I appreciate your view. But so much still remains unanswered. Ideally, one would expect that anyone who has met the minimum requirements and has been shortlisted should be given a fair chance of showing his/her capabilities. For a multinational company like Shell this is not too much of an expectation. But I like to think that the exercise is still on-going.......My fingers are crossed.
Asa much senior member on the forum and a moderator for that matter, I believeyou should be able to draw very strong and reasonable conclusions from writtenstatements or ask reasonable questions.
Ifyou read my contribution very well, you would see that what I said should notwarrant your follow up question. My statement was not absolute.
Andjust in case you think that PhD degrees are only owned by stricken people or thedegrees are a big deal, then I am afraid you will have to think again. Thereare many Naijas who have PhD degrees in several fields and are less than 29years old. They are also in Naija's labour market struggling for the same jobwith someone like me (or us) with only a good BSc Hons. They are mostlyavoiding lecturing.
Noone can rule out the fact that the world is now more than 1000 times ascompetitive as it was just a few years ago. In the late 90s and early 2000s,people with foreign degrees and even home degrees were begged by many of theseMNCs to come and work. Today, many graduates--both home and away--are roamingthe streets of major cities. Do you know how many best graduating students ofuniversity X or Y are earning ridiculously low wages just because there are noother options? Just some days ago, I learnt that one top guy in my set, butfrom another school, now works with one of those sorry banks and earns a wagethat made me scream when I heard.
Allthese are meant to remind you that companies now have a very large poooool ofexceptional people to choose from; a person with a PhD or a zero class degreeor this or that degree is not exempted from this pool. Even myself, I recentlyapplied for one global job and aced all their tests with a percentile that Ithought would make them come begging me to attend their interviews. After weeksof silence, I finally received a letter which stated that the position had beenfilled...For them to even say why I was rejected became a wahala; they had noreason.
WhileI am not writing to reduce your prestige as a senior guy here, I just thoughtit wise to help you understand that my statement was not and is not absolute. Ionly gave a possibility that could be responsible for the poster's success(indisguise).
No hard feelings. Weare all striving to land good jobs that will make us ebullient.
God will see usthrough when our time/times comes/come, that I very much know.
I remain yourstruly true,
Ighoeve--Bankingand Finance forum.
