I applied online. I interviewed at Shell (Londres, Inglaterra)
Interview
Submitted CV online and took online tests including numerical reasoning and personality. Was contacted for interview within a few weeks, and the interview was scheduled for 2 months later.
The interview started with why I wanted to work for Shell. Then for around 30 minutes the questions were all competency based, with a lot of emphasis on providing examples. When answering these make it very clear what you did, not what a group did, and have lots of examples ready as they often wanted more than one.
The main questions were examples of:
- A time you had to work under pressure to achieve something
- A time you have had to persuade people to do something a new way
- A time you had a problem with a team member
