Firstly, If you did not make a 1st Class, forget getting into Shell as a graduate trainee.

Secondly, Shell has some selected course of studies they consider for each discipline.
Therefore, if your course of study is not among those considered for the disciplines they're looking to recruit into, forget it.

Lastly, if you graduated more than 2 years ago, forget it.

Lol it’s the way you’re sounding like you’re part of shell’s HR team

stevemarkdangot:
So sorry Bro
I wish you success in your future endeavors. I personally know 3 applicants that have been contacted with all 3 having no connection whatsoever. I'll say the process is very competitive.
If possible, could you share the response to your mail when you inquire about your application status.

Omo hmm are you sure those your friends are not giving you zobo to drink. Cause Nigerians can be weird lol
They won’t want to admit
I colleague of mine said he applied to an oil and gas company and passed
Only for me to hear from his close friend that his dad plays golf with one of the top managers of that oil and gas company and that’s how he landed the job

Don’t get me wrong I’m not saying it’s impossible
I’m just saying it’s kind of hard to believe
Cause how else does shell want people to answer those things and pass😂
Sha it is well

You guys in review in progress I wish you all the best
And hopefully it’s not what I’m thinking sha

Good morning guys
I think the whole story of nepotism in this shell stuff is actually very true . I could be wrong tho
But I feel that is what is at play with shell
There was a guy on this thread that mentioned how someone he knew got into shell without connects honestly I doubt that , I’m very sure that if you ask that guy well he must’ve known someone in shell to facilitate the process
Why am I saying this
Shell’s recruitment process is very mysterious. Unlike other companies you’d hardly hear of anyone directly who got selected or employed. So it raises a lot of questions

If I was someone who is favoured by nepotism, you wouldn’t see me going on nairaland and watsapp groups commenting. Why? Because I have direct source of info from shell

So that is my reason why I feel most people don’t talk that they got selected by shell


Anyways back to shell
This is what I feel . Although I might be wrong sha
What I feel is that if you did the test and got rejected in less than a week , then that means the ai that hire view used didn’t pass you. So you automatically got disqualified

However if your stuff is in review in progress even until now
It means hire view passed you
But the physical hrs who select candidates based on nepotism have not passed you

What I’m trying to say is that I think all the people that they want have already been selected (although it would’ve been better if some say it on the nairaland and stuff cause e fit even be say dem don resume work already lol), if your stuff is still on review in progress then I think it may mean sad news

Me personally once I saw that my stuff was in review in progress for too long I knew something was wrong
Review in progress no suppose pass two months tbh
And this test was submitted June 18 for me sha
So I knew something was wrong

I sent a mail to shell directly through their website informing them that I haven’t gotten feedback
They sent a mail like two hours later (probably auto generated I guess) basically saying my stuff is still in review and due to the volume of applicants blah blah

Fast forward to 11:50 pm while I was relaxing watching a movie kill bill vol 2 , they dished me my breakfast in night time
That blah blah you know how they construct their love letter sha
E really pain me sha cause I really wanted to work in shell
Like really really really wanted to
But it’s seems their recruitment is not really trust worthy at all
I mean maybe I’m saying this as a sore looser
But all the happenings around this shell recruitment just supports my criticism
Out of all the naira landers no one can say ahh oo my friend and I got in for the next stage o this this happened o we didn’t know of anyone oo just do this this and that and you’ll be fine oo

Anyhoo just wanted to give you guys in review in progress heads up
It could mean the other way round
But like I said I could be wrong sha 🥲

Sattevayo:
Same here. Still on review in progress

When last did you check?

OsenobuasOwn:
Some people have been invited for a chat or something. Mine is still on review in progress

You bro can I watsapp you
It’s important

Shiningstar1010:
Same here too, I got a rejection from my application status but no email. We move

When was this?

Remmedy:
Better days ahead

What time and date did the mail come in ??
What’s your course of study

And also when did you write the test

moorerice:
At this rate, the next wave of regret mails may be massive lol.

Broo 😂😂
Those guys are not nice sha
Na wetin dem Dey call use and dump in relationship
Abi use and ghost
Dey use us to do false hope giving them dem con ghost
And some people (allegedly) have gotten their success mails since like two weeks ago IOC’s why una Dey do like this 😂

Saw a thread like two years ago for total energies
Can you believe that it was after the new graduate trainees resumed work in office before they now fished out the breakfast to other unlucky candidates
It is well sha

Chydon888:
🙄🙄😄😄😄😄

You are supposed to have said what was in your active mail for clarity

alphabbey1:
Only 3 category of people reason like you

1) People with CGPA that's nothing to write home about and still have no self value

2) People with no hope of making it in life

3) People still living under there parent


Earning 150k monthly with no incentive in Lagos is still living below poverty level..... it will take you donkey years to be able to afford Corrola 2005....
I belive you are still being spoon fed, reason for thinking these funds are big...

Lol it is well

moorerice:
Lol you guys are funny sha. You come here and see positive comments and then be like: "you like the positivity hovering around here..." and then go on to try to kill it

Regardless of whatever has happened, you're in the race until Shell says it's over for you.
Dent your own hopes and let others hope on if they want.

Come you’re not getting it
Some of These companies won’t bother to send a rejection letter to you to let you know that you’re no longer considered.
For perspective I applied for baker Hughes,ExxonMobil, BAT since last year/this year January
No response rejection or congratulation emails
And people have done final stages
So what does that tell you
Not all companies are the same
Companies like kpmg would get back to you most of the time to let you know your fate
But these IOC’s no get strength for that kain tin
Mind you there’s a lot of nepotism in oil and gas industry

Uba does their stuff in batches
A batch can be in final stage while another is just starting second stage
This is how they do

Sandoyin:
20th day of our application

I like the fact that they take their time in selecting the best of the best. Just like what the big 4 do

Lmaoo 😂😂
Be like say you no sabi how these Tin Dey go
Companies IOC’s like to leave applicants on read and move on to successful candidates

TimiBass:
Nobody knows if they have started sending success mails, unless someone come boldly to show us. If you know that you have received a congratulatory mail.

Kindly let us know with evidence. It's hopeful to know they have started sending mail, because they will keep on sending until the positions are fill up.

Shell works with first come, first take in.

What I am sure of is that this month is for Shell day

(Final interview).

How are you so sure it’s this month
Are you not also working on hearsay?

GoldenPRYM:
I haven’t received any mail from Shell yet. I submitted on the 13th

And they said some people have already received congratulation emails for passing the first stage

wilsonlexis:
Abeg who get sure 2 odds sportybet

Dey mount betfuse and ekitipikin on Twitter

But bro this one wey you just Dey pursue sporty bet on this nairaland Dey take am easy o

wilsonlexis:
You people sound like you are shell HR ,what makes you think someone has not gotten success mail?I know someone who have received theirs (not everyone is on nairaland)
Stop feeling because of old style of recruitment doesn't mean new changes can't be done,Una dey use old recruitment style to console Una self chai..Nigerians

When is his interview date?

mictom:
Guys, to know the status of your application, just check the workday page. Mine shows application regretted even though I have not gotten the email notification yet. It is what it is

Please let us know if they later send you an email

mrsimzu:
I gave a specific amount, but I'd suggest you shouldn't worry about what you mentioned as expected salary since it is a direct (not contract) employment. The company will still pay you what they pay for that position (regardless of whether you stated a very low or very high amount), you may only choose to accept or reject the offer letter. And the call conversation was obviously not for local employment, cos I was asked if I would love to relocate to France (Paris) for the job.

Big boss this one that they were asking you if you’d like to relocate to France , would they require that you know how to speak French? Or you knowing how to speak French or not (bilingual proficiency) doesn’t matter

aipheee:
Ofcourse!
I wasn't sure how comfortable you'd be sharing some personal info (Name) here but I'm glad we are on the same track.
First if you're on linkedin, I'd love to follow you.
Secondly, when you're asked for salary, please what did you tell them in USD, did you give them a range or did you call a specific amount?
Was it before 5k or above...

You mean 5k per month?

Boss man please I’d like to know
Would you be doing the online assessment with the rest of us or your case is VIP and it was from application to interview to job straight type of thing.
I also applied for the inspection engineer but the last thing I got from them was a mail telling me to expect a test link from saville. This was probably over two weeks ago and i haven’t gotten feedback from them

kachii77:
Make everybody dey try drop date of assessment alongside breakfast info.....Make everybody dey know when dem don dey reach their side

TOM208:

Kola5281:

Anyone in same shoes

rawboy:
Wetin man go do? 😁🥹😁

I wrote mine on 18th
From last threads It seems they normally serve their love letters in batches
I just hope I don’t receive love letters 🙏🏾

rawboy:
Yeah, just finished eating mine as well 😁😁.

Better days ahead and good luck to those still waiting.

😂😂 you guys no well
When did you do the test if I may ask?

Sattevayo:
Heard people already received mails for physical interview yesterday

Are you sure you are getting accurate info cause everyone is saying the next stage is a virtual interview not physical

Why are you people like this
Why must you go to WhatsApp
Why can’t you just post everything here for the sake of others
Kmt!

aipheee:
Any person for Inspection Engineering role?

Yours truly
I haven’t gotten any further information from them about test link and stuff abi dem don forget me ni

hustler2828:
How do you guys think? This is the reason why people like you will always fall for cheap scams like this. Somebody scammed over 500 victim, and they have payment proofs. Infact he was even running an unethical naira to dollar arbitrage of course with no registration or documentation from a government regulatory agency (another crime on its own) Such a person was reported to the DSS and according to you, the DSS are still waiting for whatever God knows intel to strike. Funny you, first billing is down, the next format will be DSS are demanding for #1000000 to motivate them and do other logistic based on the sensitive nature of the case, in order for them to strike. Just as usual magas go still donate money and pay the striker intel DSS.

You’re family with their method 😅
Racksterli that year
After everyone found out it was a scam Dey said everyone should donate money for lawyer 😂💀
The little money you have would be taken away from you if you’re not wise
Na so e be

annieezeh8:
Guys this is the whatsapp link

Links don’t work in nairaland sir
Drop WhatsApp number

ennyj01:
There is nothing to share as there is a very high chance that those who got the mail are not active on Nairaland (I am coming from the Graduate Engineering angle).

Looking at the number who made it to the first level interview stage, the number was shy of 20 and about 40% or less has gotten invite so far for the second interview (Graduate Engineer position).

The first interview was the purely competency based interview (CBI) with a mix of questions about the organisation. The duration for the first interview was 1 hour and for the second interview it was 30 mins.

That is just basically all. So you can see there is little or nothing to share ba?

Good morning please in the second interview that was 30minutes what type of questions were asked since the first one was company based questions . Also like how many questions for each interview. Was it obj or theory? Thanks
