I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Shell (Rotterdam) in Sept 2015
Interview
Online CV en motivatiebrief uploaden. Hierna kreeg ik een mail waarin ik uitgenodigd werd om een assessment te maken. Deze assessment is verdeeld in twee delen: competency based questions en een decision making + problem solving task. Voor beide onderdelen krijg je een week de tijd. Alleen het problem solving onderdeel is getimed. Ik had niet alle vragen af, maar was alsnog uitgenodigd voor een interview. Het interview vond een paar dagen later plaats via de telefoon (in het Engels). Dit is geen standaard interview waar je iets over jezelf moet vertellen maar je moet door middel van het beschrijven van situaties uit jouw leven de vragen beantwoorden. Op deze manier zien ze of je de juiste kwaliteiten bezit. De vragen waren vrij lastig en je moest er uitgebreid op antwoorden. De vragen waren allemaal gerelateerd aan achievement of relationship.

I applied through other source. I interviewed at Shell (Singapore)
Interview
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.
The first round is a recorded video interview. You need to record some videos based on their questions. There were 3 questions or me, which is not very unique. About your project, your interest in Shell.
I recently completed a video interview on HireVue, and the overall experience was pretty interesting. The platform presented a large number of psychological assessment questions along with several prompts focused on workplace morality and ethical decision-making. I appreciated that HireVue allowed unlimited time to record and re-record my video responses, which took a lot of the pressure off and made the process feel more flexible and less rushed.
Each portion of the interview was fairly in-depth and required thoughtful answers, so it ended up taking around 30 minutes per section. The combination of the structured assessments and the freedom to redo videos made the entire interview feel thorough but manageable.
