the skills test was physical. the head of hr said the next stage was interview, then medicals.

it was only one panel interview with the finance team and the CFO.

there were no technical questions, just scenario based interview question.

but this was 2013. things might have changed now.

Thank you. Please point us in the direction of the nairaland thread, if there was any

i applied for financial analyst role a decade ago fresh out of university. i made it all the way to the interview but didn’t get the offer.

if you know your role has progressed to the next stage, just move on. they will not contact you.

Big man, please tell us more about the next stage(s). How many interviews after the skills test? And how was/were the interview(s)?

This silence is loud sha.

Please has any financial analyst received the skills test invite? Please speak up 🙏🏾

indusfidus:
The drilling is not here but the interviewer where nice throughout.


Any BA that have interviewed so far

Looks like you're the only one being interviewed for the position. Your grace >>>

Hsolomon:
I think that guy is just trying ease his or her emotions.....there is no evidence to that effect!

Lol if he says he's received an email, believe him and hope for yours to come. He has no reason to lie about it or prove anything to you. He has a life-changing interview to prepare for.

So changes yet for business analysts?

Check your mails. Invite just dropped.

Good luck!

What's going on here? We're all still waiting for the test invite right? Or has anybody received yet?

Remmedy:
Good evening Everyone I still doubt anyone has gotten an invitation email or success mail…. Assessments are fully done before emails indicating next stages are sent …
What of a case more better candidates are discovered
It’s always I heard , I heard over here .. even someone above said he was going to confirm from someone he’s sure has gotten up to now nothing

So assessment is still ongoing and I’m sure before the end of July everyone will know his or her stand ..
SHELL can’t leave you on standby

Yes it’s highly competitive , a current beneficiary of the program said during his time some ODVI videos you submitted was analyzed from Recruiters abroad to make sure it’s fair and square ..they took just 15 out of thousands .. Graduates from Imperial College London and Harvard applied too so you know the level of programme you are applying for…..

Don’t lose hope because even people from Nigerian universities and polytechnics applied too and some got …

Keep your fingers crossed and Hope for the best ..

I also believe that no one has received a success mail yet. Fingers crossed 🤞

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

Chydon888:
Please o, I saw application regretted in my mailbox, as in, in my inactive box, what does that mean?

If it's in the inactive section, then that must be an old application. You should be checking the active section, not the inactive one.

fisimaster:
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

I get you. But going by precedence, Shell doesn't move like Baker Hughes and others that you mentioned. They reach out from time to time with either a rejection mail or a success mail.
The fact that nepotism is the order of the day in IOCs doesn't mean that they won't select the best people they see fit. Like it or not, these IOCs are more populated by merit candidates than by nepo babies.
So, compete hard, pray harder and do it over and over again until you get that dream job.

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.

So no positive feedbacks so far?

LiciousDocLuv:
Who? Airsay has resigned

Lol you sound like you're new to this thread. We been here since the 80s

0x1rvin:

Is anyone else expecting feedback by this month end or is it just me?

Welcome to July, folks! Our month of breakthrough!!

WEEK 2 BEGINS.

Time keeper

I got to Eko Hotel around 7.30am that day, which I'd say was just on time, as they started calling us upstairs about 10 mins later.

So for our successors coming to seek for one or two gists, I'd say "be yourself" on that day. I've joined the "be yourself crooners". Also, maintain professionalism. Just see that day like a normal day at the office. This is important because those tasks are designed for calm and collected heads. Don't let anxiety get the best of you.

The group exercise was daunting for my team due to time constraint, but I think we gave it our best shot, though we didn't finish discussing all the issues.

Fact finding was bizarre lol. My assessors were cheerful though. When I made my decision they both looked at me like I had made a mistake then they started playing devil's advocate for the option I dropped. I stood my ground with facts.

Analysis and presentation was something else. my assessors didn't smile with me one bit. Time flew by so fast I could only scribble a few things to barely fill up a page of the chart. If you hear the atrocious questions those men threw at me after my presentation! I got the Peter Lorenzo question too lol. How can they be asking me the business' operating hours?
They asked about 5-7 questions before the time elapsed and we called it a day.

And as for the food, I had lots of the suya and pastries for breakfast such that I could only eat scantily during lunch.

I was really impressed with their detail-oriented planning of the process. So smooth.

It was fun. Can't wait to see that bumper offer! God abeg!!

ThEekog:
Hi.... please is this week the Final week for AC?

I was actually thinking it is next week.

Counting 6 weeks from May 2nd when it commenced should make this week the final one; 2 weeks for each location, bar any outlying circumstances of course.

ennyj01:
The real wait and tension starts. At least this thread will become lively once more

I can't wait to discuss this AC! My eyes saw my ears that day lol.

We've finally gotten to the final week of the AC. Our 8 weeks count for feedback begins after this incoming week. Phew!

mykel2yc:
The technical questions was strictly on petroleum Profit Account. The last time I read it was in my 300l.

Lmao, You're exaggerating

Dimple10:
probably doing batch by batch as they're still observing covid protocols. you'll be required to do a covid online thingy to get access to the building

It's not a physical interview. It's virtual.

I'm suspecting tomorrow evening.

We go again this week ��

wememore03:
Do you have any ideas about how many stages are left?

Like is there another assessment?

Just the interview stage.

Rosevail:
Are you really sure about this? An acquaintance of mine said he's been paid 160. And i've gone online and their salary structure is pegged at 180+

Peeps from last year's thread got offers worth close to 5m gross annual - non-chartered, and over 5m - chartered.

At this point, I think it's best to find a distraction to take your mind off it. Feedback will come when it should.
