God help us. Can¡®t wait to go for the SRD.
thanks Ekenuelz..appreciate dat
Friends, what should one expect @ the SRD? Any materials 4 preparation?. Thanks all, wishing us the best!!!!
people that av gone for SRD in d past or are privileged to know how one can prepare for it should endeavour to start sharing tips. early preparation can do wonders peeps. i'd rather we remain optimistic and programmed our minds like the invitation will definitely come, even if we prep and dont get d invite (GOD FORBID) d knowledge wont leave us worse off, no knowledge is wasted. most importantly it would be of great help to those that will be invited.
No problem
Glad to join the league of SRD 2012 hopefuls!
@All; na wao, this thread is becoming too watery oh! Abi na all of unna shell don hammer regret mail ni?
Is SHELL still sending regret e-mails? Na wa o....make them start to they send SRD invites jare... Everywhere don dey tensed up now. I check my Shell application status like every 5 mins now
@aydj32,tru talk oooo...
@all, i tink they want 2 conclude the interview for the commercial graduates first. Cos at d moment, commercial graduates are being invited 4 interview. So my suggestion is 2 remain patient. Wen the i.v for technical gradtuates start flyin in, u wil definitely knw. Tanx folks.
@teezers99-true talk.
let dis b ur guide
SRD semi final n final stages no go easy ooo
well sha, God dey 4 SRD Hopefuls dat ar wel prepared
SUCCESS ALL:cool:
@teezers99 I agree with you. Everyone currently being invited for interview now that am aware of is a commercial graduate. But then, i really hope SHELL is already out of regret letters for technical graduates, so that everyone who hasn't received any mail yet will get an invite.
I seriously wish the reject mails have seized but I am wondering. I don't seem to know anyone who wrote in lagos that has got a reject mail. Why am I having a feeling that it is only ph centre that has been swept?
Very confusing...I didn't get a regret mail and I wrote mine in PH on may 28.I've read from ppl here tht got the 'reget mail' who wrote theirs in PH on may 31... Status quo is still with God.I av no worries.jst kip prayin'
@ all: I know someone that wrote in Lagos that has gotten a regret mail!.................................my hope is built on nothing else but Christ Jesus!
funny set of people. always calling Jesus and God for everything...as if God came down to write the test for you...
Guy...U do not crucify a man for his belief, they believe that God gave them the ability to write the test, that He has brought them thus far, and He is able to take them to the "promise land"...I also believe these too. So if you do not believe same as we do, you do not crucify us for our belief.
Thanks for your understanding...please do not take it personal, just to get this outta the way so this thread can be more objective as we await the SRD for as many as would be invited
@ALL - the SRD preps continues, even if one is not eventually invited, the knowledge gain and capacity built remains with him/her. All d best with your preps
True talk if we refuse to believe in God @ this selection stage and we some how get in the the orgnisation, we will certainly be forced to believe in God when one starts facing fierce challenges on the JOB-let no man think he can do without God here.If u never believed in God and yet u achieve ur 2.1 nd first class in school,at least by now u av realise that u need much more than dat to get into a company of this nature ;When u reached the test centre and met with some of ur seniors in university with good grades for many years ahead of u and still queueing up year after year just to get one invite to SRD lol----For Me its God all the way!!shell or not -it is GOD all the way!
@Kollected, if not God who else? Is not by being intelligent. @all, if U've not got d regret mail, I urge u to kip praying, be optimistic and kip preparing very hard for SRD. Ofcos I got regret mail but I have been preparing for SRD and as a matter of fact, I've got some knowledge. I urge u to kip on preparing from all angles and on any material u could lay ur hands on. Don't stop! Kip on until d battle is over. and believe me, U won't get anything write without God. See U at the top. Cheers!

My last post was meant 4 @original kings and anybody in D̶̲̥̅̊ aus dat culd help!! Fanx.
Sorry, havent done it before but from what has been said earlier (Tripple C's post), it involves Role playing and In-tray exercise, Technical presentation, Team work, and Interviews.
Google IN-TRAY excercise, i think its d most challenging esp if u havent done it in d past. Thats is Y u need to practice it. U can Go to http://www.kent.ac.uk/careers/interviews/intray.htm to read more on it or just google it. U can also find 2 samples as i have attached.
Role play is basically where u r given a role to act as and do what is meant to be done assuming u r that person u r acting like. Eg. U act as the Territory manager where u have subordinates who report to u, u can have challenges like a subordinate who is either always giving excuses or procrastinating etc. how do u approach such....similar stuffs.
Then for presentation, i dont know abt SRD presentation but my guess is that u r given an exercise which u have to read, u then make a summary or recommendation based on what u feel is the best . It could also be a presentation on urself, career aspirations and goals, etc (like i said i dont know abt their presentation).
Team work is where u are part of a team and u r given a task to perform together.
Finally, interview should either be a one-on one interview or a round-table interview.
Someone who has an experience on SRD can throw more light. Just my 2 cents...
SRD invite suspension continua. I seek favour from God, it's not by how good or intelligent you are, it's all by His grace which is sufficient for me. By now an insider ought to have dropped an hint on why the delay this time around?
@yhamo, I believe u would find most of what U need from my Oga's (Tripple C) post and that of naijahotjobs1111. Good luck as u get ur self prepared.
Click this link to fund your e-accounts, liberty reserves, alertpay and pay pal and you will never regret you did. This is not a scam, read between the lines. Thanks http://incomepart.com/ref.php?page=act/ref&invcod=55970
Bro u have said it all...
just a lil addition, the SRD technical presentation is a 15 min presentation on any topic or project u handled in ur undergrad (They usu specify undergrad...for those of us who wish we did something diff during our undergrad projects, it is well with us oh!) Then they ask u technical questions based on ur presentation and other techy aspects for 45 mins
all d best with ur preps!
Pls,does it mean your undergrad project has to be oil and gas-related?.my project wasnt related to oil and gas.Can i still proceed with my project{solid mineral-related)?.Thank you.
You have hot the nail on the head. However, they would also like to see how you worked with people and how you get help when you are stuck. Most of these things will be in the briefing package that will be sent to you with the invite. A good example will be to explain how you either asked a friend to help (eg with a mathematics software for ur own engineering project). they also want to see how you dealt with feedback (or if you asked for it if there was none). there is no rule stating your project has to be oil and has related. it would be advisable since they would bring a top gun in the field to be present at your interview. but if you do not have any project relating to the oil and gas, you have to make do with what you have.
also, for the in-tray exercise, think more as a team. you as the new plant manager will not know the answer to all things neither can you do it all by yourself. make gooduse of your subordinates, distribute tasks, form committees (nigerians like that anyways).
the same also applies for the group work. ensure you have a role you are playing in each case (there will be two cases). make a contribution. even if you have nothing to say, nominate yourself to keep decorum, maintain order or something. don't just nod your head and say 'I agree'.
Be confident and say what is in your mind. they will try as much as possible to destabilize you by making you think you are not saying enough. stick 'reasonably' to what you say and no when to say 'that is all I can think of'.
dynamo and NHJ, u guys r just too much!!!
Thanks
