I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Shell (London, England) in Jan 2021
Interview
Multiple stages with different members of the team, fairly tough, lots of questions which were fairly self-explanatory such as what are your strengths and weaknesses, what can you bring to the role etc.
The Shell interview process was well-structured and professional. The interviewers were friendly and made me feel comfortable while asking thoughtful questions that focused on both technical knowledge and personal experiences. The process gave me a clear understanding of Shell’s culture and values, and overall it was a positive and insightful experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you faced a challenge working in a team, and how you handled it.
The process is methodical and structured. I received the meeting invite about a week before the interview. The interview panel is warm and nice. I enjoyed the process. The panel makes you comfortable so you can answer the questions freely.
Pretty Straight forward and very much to the point. Multiple rounds, at the least 3 that I went through. Mostly person who could be your LM will do the interview.
