guys, i just got mine today for medicals next tuesday. thank God. what relief.
for those who've not gotten, just keep hoping. God will do it.

I am not speculating. if you kno someone who got first class, he probably did not do too well in the SRD, and if you know someone with 2;2, he had waec in one sitting and blasted the SRD. of course there are others that cant be "overlooked". you know "very long legged persons"
But pls keep the hope alive. those people in this group stand a great chance of making it. i expect more good news than bad ones, it will only take longer waiting. so keep ur hearts in your chests.

I guess u can start "finding" your mind back now, eh?

Congrats, man!

Sorry folks, just trying to diffuse the tension in the house a bit; every one seems to be on tenterhooks checking their email 24-7, yours truly included,

Anyhowz, as for those in my cat-a-gory, no news yet; their 10 days is seeming more like 10000000 days

Or, Tosat et al, u beg to differ? Good or bad news, notin don happen.
Pls confirm from that ur friend that refuses to "nairaland" with us,

Expectantly urs, cutesy

Guys,

Abeg where do you stay and where were u invited to for the medicals?

Have a nice weekend.

Micheal i'm really happy for you, thrilled that you did not go insane as you thought you would, All the best in your medicals oh

Cutesey, long time no post, thanks for bringing some light into the thread as you know these engineering people will all soon be on their way ( sadly) the more their letters come in the less we'll see of them, meaning we need to keep the thread moving.

Yeah i heard people in your category have not heard anything at all, well i think it all has to do with the restructuring thing, the one shell project. About 3000 staff will be laid off so lets give them benefit of the doubt and say they have a lot on their hands right now, the best we can do is wait or you could even call your facilitator to find out more info,

The wait continues ohh, lets hope that this month we'll have some news.

Cheers all

Happy weekend people

Hmmm
i just went through the whole thread, it was fun, going back. Seeing where we started from and where we are now.

Once again congrats to all those who have made it so far, BROWN B, YEMHOSKY, OHBOYWOY, RAVE. RANBAXY, MICHEAL77,kDB
Wish you all the best. Please you guys should keep us updated on whats happening, you are our shell eyes and ears for now, lol

To all those still hopefull, my prayers are going out to you all, It is well oh

Cheers people

Well we have come along way with this thread.
Several information have been given by several people and I must confess they are all useful.
From my own submission, the first sets of successful invited was based on community/Niger Delta factor. This claim was supported by an earlier post of nivie

Secondly, the information of having issues with medical in Lagos is also very true.

As regards onavae  assertions there may be some element of truth in it.

In my group for instance, we had first class product  with distinctions in Waec one sitting, generally our SRD was perfect and  we were just five.
The only guy that was not so happy during the SRD because he was a bit jittery was the first person to be called for medical ( although he is from Niger/Delta and he resides in PH).  The rest of us are believing God for His mercy and favour including another Niger/Deltan with 2:1 but resides in Lagos.

However, to God be the glory, this morning I got my invitation for medical in FMH next week. It was sent yesterday.
IN A NUTSHELL BY STRENGTH SHALL NO MAN PREVAIL. GOD CAN DO AND WILL DO ALL THINGs PROVIDED YOU PUT YOUR TRUST IN HIM.
TO HIM ALONE BE ALL THE GLORY.

As many that are still trusting God for goodnews from Shell, do not despair and also avoid despondency from setting in, the bible says those who wait for the Lord (i.e put their trust in the Lord) shall not be put to shame (disappointed). Ish 49:23.

Wishing everyone the very best.

CONGRATS MIKETOMI, that makes eight succesful shell hopefuls, i mean shell workers in the house, lol

And i belive the number will keep growing by the hour, please let us know whats up ohhh, don't just fade away into the dark remember plenty shell hopefuls still dey here expecting some information at any point in time,

congrats to you all, and guys lets keep the faith up and this thread from disappearing, i had to search for a while before i located the thread ohhh, its not a good sign ohhh,

HR/FIN hopefuls we have to keep posting now our time never reach ohh, and from what i hear it maynot be for some time,

Anyway people, wishing you all a fantastic week ahead,

Cheers

thats ten down and more to go,

like badtype said lets all just put our trust in God, very nice post badtype, atleast you didnt just get your medicals and disappear you contributed something and for a first post you did pretty well, lol , Congrats to you ohhhhh i hope this will be the beginning of many open doors in your life.

And to deinowei,wishing you all the best too

All the best people, it may be a long wait but God dey!!

Cheers

Well for KDB and others congrats,like i said u guys shld see us as your brodas when n u arrive here o!!(us in SITP/2).I really enjoy this conversation,the hopes expressed e.t.c.But i've got some news,was at a shell meeting in which Mutiu Sunmonu,the current MD,SPDC and Ann Pickaard,The Vice President,Exploration and Production(West Africa) addressed us,the fact is that Shell is being owed about 2 billion dollars for the JV patnership by the Federal Government and it's affecting their operations (and their paying contract staff),also the MD made it clear that the PROJECT "one shell" is under TEMPORARY SUSPENSION

i must say congrat too.God is really there for us if only we come close to him. The God that did it 4 u will do it for me n all.Amen

hey anniwil, was jus wondering if you could give me some info on sitp 2 n whats its about, is it also at warri? do you guys also have exams every week or two? fill me in abeg,

CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Iam so glad for those that have made it into SITP1. Please who knows if they are through with the medicals. I have not heard anything from them, good or bad. Who has a number i can call to find out how far, or alternatively call your contacts in hr and keep us posted. Iam in a terrible state PLEASE HELPPPPPPPPPPPP!

CONGRATS once more and God bless you all.

Na wa ooooooooooo,
This one that they have start sending offer letter, i'm being forced to conclude that I didn't make my SRD most likely because up to this point, I have not heard from shell and it not good for my system as I am always in a bad mood all the time and I'm really tired of my banking job.
All thesame, shell or no Shell, life continues.
Congract to all those that made it to edjeba.

CONGRATS to our folks with their offer letter cooling off in their various email boxes.
I rejoice with you for making it to ELV for 2008/2009 SITP.

Q1: From the offer letter when are we suppose to resume?

Q2: Are they going to still send hardcopy letter of offer?

To other Shell hopefuls, never say die until the game is over. I must tell you the game is not yet over.
If God wants you in SHELL thru this year SITP, no Power can stop you.
Keep trusting him and His purpose for your life shall not be defeated.

To the guys that already had their meidcals, God will complete the good works He has started in your life.

Last but not the least, medical test is still on in Lagos.
So it is too early to give up.

@Hr/Fin folks
hmmm, the wait is still on, lets not get weary and all remain expectant, God that has done for our brothers would do ours too in Jesus name

@cutesy
my friend has not gottn any feedback from shell oh, what about u? i wish you all d best

@robbielex
how una dey? its been a while. would give u a call soon sef. pls can u shed some light on the people that have gotten feedback as par the interview?

At everyone, God dey, lets all continue sowing seeds of rejoicing knowing that God would in turn,cause people to continually rejoice wiv us thru life.

Cheers y'all

@KDB
You'll do a whole lot of courses
The learning environment is splendid, the teaching is very good. Lecturers are usually friendly (since you're a staff, no more Uni bully-boy tactics) and approchable.

lectures usually from 8 - 5, tea/relaxation breaks every hour ( 5 - 15 mins).
Exams!! loads of 'em. Th eonly good thing is the exams are only one hour in duration, so you won't die. it's an intensive programme, and it'll keep you on your toes almost all the way.

but expect to make some of the best pals you'll ever make there.

one more thing. . .

Some of y'all are gonna be silly enough to start sourcing for past reading materials to get a head start. That is the dumbest thing anyone can do, and i strongly discourage anyone from doing anything of that sort. Rest your brains for when its needed. Everything there is taught in a way that you'll pick it up easy.

hey congrats ranbaxy, i'm really happy for you oh.

Hmmm Tosat nah wah for you ohhhh, i have not heard from you in centuries, well yeah they have started contacting people but as usual the negative info comes first, so if that your friend has not heard anything then i guess he is either in the " he did very well category" or "under consideration"

Anyway that stuff i went for was very fine thanks for asking,

please try and find out more info on this shell recruitment thing nowwwwwwwwww, we hr/fin hopefuls want to know whats up

Hmmm cutesey have you heard anything yet tooo, let us know ok?
