[/Girlrachy,from d depth of my heart congratulations!
Please tell us something more,where did u do ur SRD? Where will u do ur medicals? Do you know anyone who has been invited 4 medicals too?
4 those who want 2 know how much Shell pays,I just confirmed 4rm my man who just passed out of SITP.
Shell now pays about 430k every month.This does not include allowances that come quarterly.
Quarterly they pay about twice the normal monthly pay.
My earnest,fervent prayer is that no one in nairaland will get regret mail in JESUS name(AMEN).
My invitation 4 medicals is d next thing you will see on this thread.

Well i think i still enjoy this forum,as per the above info.I believe edoblakky's very correct/Infact at a point last yr,SITP/1 were given about 600k for security allowance seperate from their salary which was doubled at some point.I still reiterate though,that Shell is everyone's dream company.But the fact is that "Things are not really as they seem".I know someone who was in Shell SITP/2 Batch 13 which was largely community based who told me that Shell has not called any of them to resume yet,talkless of calling them for medicals.It had to get to a point where the organisation had to be taken to the  Delta State Governor for a security meeting because of their delay in calling the largely community based set to resume after successfully completing the training and interviews.The truth is Shell is not really friendly with their communities.The SITP/2 And SITP/1 usually should complement each other both at the training centre and Edjeba and at the field in operations,but to my dismay,the company doesn't do this.It continually sets up a wall between the communities and even SITP/2 and their staff.One wonders why anyway!
I am not saying this to disrupt you guys joy.I look forward to being a part of the organisation some day,but the fact is everyone who gets into this company especially their operations should usually pray everyday when at the field or even on land because they are usually the object of their host communities anger largely due to their relationship.I hope u guys that'll eventually get in will represent the change the company needs.I can tell u that there is a want of operators as the current restructuring has taken its toll on all of them and one operator does the job of at least three.U guys are not Operators and one day you will get to understand what i mean.For now go and count your bucks and become "the big BOIz" but remember that "everything rises and falls on relationship".God bless y'all,

@all, dis last saturday was a great day as I attended the wedding of two of the just outgone SITPs dat got wedded to each other.

Godeagle:

When I went for the SRD, I didn't pray to get into Shell; I prayed for God's will to be done.

EasyT:

Welcome back,opensesame.U seem to always take the weekends off the page.Abi as u no dey office for weekend,no access to free browsing(just joking!)

EasyT:

Ofcourse I know you didn't/cannot/must not get the regret mail.

douecho:

The house is quiet because everybody don talk the one wey de their mind finish.na only to wait now.and nothing to say while waitng.abi we wan use this time discuss Niger delta issues?

opensesame:

Speaking of which, sorry for taking us back, but does anyone know how many people did the test!
I have always wondered, partly due to plain curiosity and partly to REALLY APPRECIATE God's blessing in my life (not that I don't over-appreciate him of course).

babake2020:

If you consider the fact that the test was written in at least 3 centres. Also, it took at least 3 days per center for the conduct of the test, I would estimate that at least about 4500 people wrote the shell test. I guess a lot of people did the SRD too, i'd estimate 600 or thereabout,

Osina wata:

Godeagle, Relax, as long as say u never hear from them let things flow, they will communicate everyone that come in for SRD, I pray it turns out +ve

EasyT:

I dare say girlrachy and pradok didnt get medical invite.Rather,what they got was regret mails and they decided to take this house for a joke.If it is not the case,let them come on and prove themselves on the thread.

Just keeping it real!

EasyT:

As regards the number of persons that wrote the test,I thing it was a lot more than 4500.Somebody told me that 16,000+ wrote the last one in 2007.I guess 2008 would have been in the same range.

Godeagle:

It is possible they got the medical invite out of error on Shell's part, initially, which was later recalled.
They may have been too embarassed to tell us what happened. (Just thinking aloud)

Osina wata:
