The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Shell in Oct 2009
Interview
I was away on the suggested day of their interview and they were unwilling to reschedule or to do a telephone interview. This shows how little future employees mean to them and that they are just trying to fill a quota by interviewing as many random people as possible. Many other companies are more than willing to reschedule or compromise interview dates.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Shell (Austin, TX) in Oct 2019
Interview
The first round was easy. It was a pre-recorded interview. They asked basic personal question. The second round was a case study that they give you time to prepare for. I probably would have made it if I had known how case study goes, but I didn't.
I completed the online tests, and then did a behavioural interview online. Basic behavioural questions. However, the online interview was not conducted with a person. Simply answer questions by recording yourself.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Shell (Calgary, AB) in Oct 2016
Interview
I went through the online application process and after about a month I received a call about an interview. The interview was over the phone with an engineer and lasted over an hour. Basic behavioural questions and you also have time at the end to ask them anything. They went in great detail with my questions. You apply for a general engineering position with Shell and then if you do well in the interview they will find a place that best suits you.
