I applied for a commercial role in the Shell Graduate Program. First, you’ll receive 2 assessments, one being more about aptitude and the other about attitude. More specifically, the 1st is a series of games (kinda similar to Lumosity games) and the 2nd is more about your personality and work style. If you pass this, you are invited to take an On-Demand Video Interview (ODVI) through HireVue. You’ll record your answers to 5 behavioral questions. The questions are pretty basic interview questions, but I recommend practicing your answers with HireVue, so you feel more comfortable recording yourself. If it’s your first time using the platform, it may feel awkward and can hurt your chances of getting the position, as most hiring software analyzes body language. If you pass this round, you move on to the final assessment which is a 2 part interview with 2 interviewers. The first part is a presentation on a case study. You will receive the case study 2 days before your interview and then will be given a specific topic about the case during your interview. You will be given 20 minutes to prepare a 5 minute, oral presentation. You will then be asked questions about your recommendation, your reasoning behind it, and then be given additional scenarios. It’s pretty straight forward, but I recommend really knowing your case, so then you can use the 20 minutes to organize your thoughts/ structure your presentation. It recommends 90-120 minutes of review, but I would recommend preparing a lot more (Hint: a SWOT analysis can really help). Afterwards, you’ll go into a behavioral interview. Again, it’s pretty straight forward. - The final interview is done via HireVue Video Chatting, so you can do it anywhere you have Wifi. During the 20 minutes where you create your presentation, your interviewers will turn off their audio and visual, so you can work in peace. Your recruiter will be able to tell you additional information if you need it. They’re very nice and helpful :) I also recommend reaching out to new hires via LinkedIn or through your university. Networking is always a good way to learn both about what the company is looking for and more about the company culture and your potential fit.

The interview process focses on behavioral assessments and technical screenings. Candidates are tested on the "CAR" method, focusing on safety, leadership, and on job competence through structured and in depth questions.
