If you experience any problems with booking your interview please contact myself as soon as possible.

Interviews are on a one-to-one basis and will last 45 minutes. There will be a five-minute career discussion at the beginning of the interview where you will have the opportunity to state your career preferences, and let us know how flexible you are able to be about work location, etc.

We will be looking for candidates to demonstrate Shell’s three core values - Honesty, Integrity and Respect. Throughout our recruitment process, we assess you against CAR (Capacity, Achievements and Relationship). You will be asked for evidence of your Achievement and Relationship skills to date, as well as being given the opportunity to analyse an issue that is current to global companies (Capacity).

Any reasonable budget/standard travel expenses incurred will be refunded to you on production of receipts, but please note that we are only able to refund taxi fares in exceptional circumstances.

If travelling is inconvenient, a telephone interview can be arranged. A telephone interview will not disadvantage you in any way, and is more flexible in relation to dates and times.

Due to the amount of applications we receive, if you cancel your interview without extenuating reasons, or fail to attend your scheduled interview without notifying your relevant Shell Contact or without an extenuating reason, we will withdraw your application.

If you no longer wish to proceed with our recruitment process, please decline the interview so that we can close your file.

Basically its going to be an interview to see how much u can relate with current happenings in the industry nt sure if its going to be streamlined with ur field or the oil industry as a whole bt u need to desmonstrate ur understanding of issues and how u can tackle them which is under capabilty also u need to desmonstrate how much of a team player u can be wot u hv done in the past how did u go abt it. itS GOING TO BE A BEHAVIOURAL interview.

All the best and keep us posted after ur interview.

U can also visit land bcos there r a number of guys dat hv jst concluded the process and were successful they will gv u a first hand info.

I got the same mail, but I am currently not in town - official stuff. I have called d undersigned to see if I can get another day next week. If I were on land, I would have stolen my way to Lagos and back.

Waiting for a positive reply. Success to all invited and good luck to all still searching!

We can all see what a genuine interview invitation looks like.
No DUBIOUS gmail or yahoomail address.....
No Bank account numbers.....
Verifiable business address....
Clear, concise directives on what to do and how to do it
HOUSE, please take note

well, there you go... they told you what they are looking for? they told you what to expect. Just be yourself and make a good presentation. To fail to prepare is to prepare to fail so make adequate and sufficient preparations.

Good luck
