I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Shell (Houston, TX) in Nov 2013
Interview
Two phone interviews and many calls between me and contract company. Did not have to do a face to face interview. The hiring manager was very hard to get in touch with and the interview had to be rescheduled at least twice.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Mostly questions about experience. One question was if I were willing to relocate.
