Interview
After a game based assessment, successful applicants will be invited to complete a recorded interview session on Hirevue. I applied for the technical sector and there were 5 interview questions. These are some that I remember: - Why do you want to join shell? -Describe a time you helped or led someone in a project? - Describe a time you faced a challenging problem and how you solved it.

Question 1
Mostly behavioral questions on your experiences and how you react to situations.
A textual question appeared on the screen, then I was given unlimited attempts to record a three-minute video answering the question. This was repeated twice (i.e. three questions in total).

Interview
Not the interview, but assessment. It had a prerecorded video interview as part of the online assessment. The online assessment seemed like a strength based one where you get a profile of some highlighted strengths at the end of the test.
First, there is a game-like process to check your behavior in certain situations. Then, there's an on-demand interview where you send videos answering some questions. Finally, there is supposed to be a case study with Shell employees.
