I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Shell in Oct 2013
Interview
Went to the career fair at Penn State, they were impressed with my resume, and invited me to a case competition later that night. Got an phone interview a couple weeks later. One hour long, I was interviewed by a boring man who just read off of a paper. Lots of behavioral questions. Name a time in which you have been challenged. It has to be recent, and they dont like repeats of the last behavioral situation. Then sub questions branched off that, who was involved, what part was the most challenging, why, etc.

Question 1
Name a time in which you needed analytical skills to solve a problem.
I applied online. I interviewed at Shell (Calgary, AB) in Jan 2026
Interview
Self video screening interview and then only the select candidates move forward with actual interview. It seems very few are filtered through AI filtering. They tell you if you aren't selected within few days.
The first round is a general screening with two components. the first is multiple choice where you are put in plausible situations at work regarding following guidelines. Then there is a personality quiz, and finally 3 prerecorded interview questions with unlimited attempts

Question 1
What was one time were you had to deal with conflict in the work place
They first took an assesment of my behavioural compatability and other such information, technical round is usually conducted later after the above assesment to see if you can fit in the company culture
