Before applying you should explore our degree matcher to see

which roles your degree subject is most suited for and to learn moreabout each of the roles within our Graduate Programme.

Please also ensure you have reviewed our Vacancy Profiler as this

shows which Graduate Programmes currently have vacancies in

your country (European Graduate Programmes only).

ONLINE ASSESSMENT

Once you’ve successfully submitted your online application

you will receive an email notification with a link to the online

assessment.

We’re looking to find out more about how your personal

abilities complement your professional qualifications.

The online assessment consists of two components, both of

which you will need to complete in order to move on to the

next stage of the recruitment process:

PART 1 PART 2

Part 1 is a series of competency-based questions.

Click here for an example of the sort of questions that are asked.

This test asks you to review a range of behavioural statements and to

indicate how well they describe you. Some of the statements will describe

you well, some will not. You will use a rating scale to tell us how like you

each statement is, as well as which statements are most like you.

This assessment is not timed but it should take about 30 minutes. Once

completed, you’ll receive an email notification of the outcome. You’ll need

to successfully complete the first component of the online assessment before

proceeding to the second.

TOP TIPS

Ensure you have researched Shell’s values and read our section on

what we look for.

Before starting Part 1, take some time to consider examples of how

you’ve worked most successfully in the past.

Don’t try to second-guess what Shell is looking for. Above all we want

candidates to have integrity, so be true to yourself and confident of

your opinions.

Make sure you are in the right frame of mind to take the tests (e.g.

motivated, focused, not tired or stressed) Ensure you choose a quiet place and time to take the assessments -

make sure you won’t be interrupted or distracted.

If English isn’t your first language you may want to have a dictionary

to hand.

For Part 2 you will probably want to use a pen, paper and a calculator

as you will be required to make calculations (e.g. multiplications,

percentages) to get to the right answer.

Take the tests seriously – only the numerical test is timed, so don’t

“speed through” and take the time to read the questions properly

Unfortunately we can’t give individual feedback due to the volume

of applicants

INTERVIEW

3



If you successfully complete the online tests you may be

invited to an interview. The interview will take place either face-to-face or over the telephone. We’ll be assessing how you perform

against our assessment criteria, including your past achievements

and your relationship-building skills (please refer to “ What we

look for” for further details). It is a good idea to come to the

interview with some specific examples of your achievements in mind

so that you can talk about them in depth.

This is an opportunity for you to tell us more about your motivations

for applying, the challenges you’ve faced and how you’ve

demonstrated the qualities we’re looking for. You’ll also havethe chance to ask us questions about Shell, our culture, work

environment or other areas of interest to you.

interactive engagement where you’ll be given further insight into Shell’s
