After you’ve submitted your application, you’ll be asked to complete three online assessments. Altogether, this will take about 40 minutes and will need to be completed within 10 days of receiving them.

  • Timed cognitive test

This will be a timed test that is divided into three sections, covering verbal skills, numerical skills, and abstract reasoning, respectively. You would have 4 minutes to complete each section. 

  • Working style assessment

This segment will assess your approach to working and your preferred behavior across key personality factors. It will not be timed, and generally only takes 10-12 minutes to complete. We celebrate and value diversity at Shell, so we encourage you to be yourself when responding. You will then receive a ‘working styles’ report based on how you answered the questions. 

  • On-Demand Video interview

This short, self-recorded video interview is an opportunity for you to tell us about yourself and your qualifications. You’ll also see some of our current graduates, who will ask you a series of pre-recorded competency-based questions. You may record the interview at any internet-enabled location at a time most convenient to you. For each question, you’ll have 30 seconds to prepare and 3 minutes to record your answer.

This is the last assessment stage for the Shell Internship. It consists of a face-to-face session with two professionals at Shell. During this session, you will be asked to discuss your thoughts on a case study, which you will have a chance to review 48 hours prior to the session.

You will need to read and prepare for this, but don’t worry; more information will be provided closer to the time. On the day of your assessment, you will be assigned a topic relating to your case study and then given 20 minutes (30 for non-native English speakers) to prepare a 5-minute presentation. The assessors’ questions and additional scenarios will follow this presentation for up to 30 minutes. After this, there will be an interview; this is where you have the chance to get to know us, and for us to get to know you better. To make the interview process more convenient and comfortable, we are leveraging the latest digital technology to bring the experience to you, wherever you may be.
