Description:

Shell is a place where you're part of the team, not just a new joiner in the corner, as several people in the Shell Graduate Programme explain. It's a community, young and friendly, where you soon get to know everyone, especially as the social side of work is just as important as putting in the hours. Join Shell if you want to get more out of your working life than you ever imagined possible.

Working at Shell

The social side

[Male Shell employee]

You end up with a community

[Male Shell employee]

that are all travelling to a new city typically after university,

[Male Shell employee]

and so everyone makes a big effort to make new friends,

[Male Shell employee]

and it creates a very solid and strong community.

[Female Shell employee]

You've almost got this campus feeling.

[Female Shell employee]

It's a very young environment

[Female Shell employee]

and Shell has a very good social environment.

[Male Shell employee]

But also it's very important that you get to meet other graduates

[Male Shell employee]

from different areas that you wouldn't normally see,

[Male Shell employee]

and that helps to set up those permanent connections

[Male Shell employee]

that will help you out in the rest of your career.

[Male Shell employee]

There's the Energie Graduate Network,

[Male Shell employee]

and that's very involved –

[Male Shell employee]

always organising social events that everyone can participate in,

[Male Shell employee]

whether they be light-hearted or a development opportunity.

[Male Shell employee]

There's a Shell Women's Network, an Experienced Higher Network.

[Female Shell employee]

The Asian Network, the African Network, and so forth.

[Male Shell employee]

There are opportunities for new graduates

[Male Shell employee]

to socialise and network together.

[Male Shell employee]

When I first joined,

[Male Shell employee]

I found a lot of invitations in my inbox.

[Male Shell employee]

Payday pint or bowling, sailing.

[Male Shell employee]

They've got a salsa event coming up.

[Male Shell employee]

There are Christmas parties, barbecues, summer balls.

[Male Shell employee]

A senior engagement, lunch and learn with the leaders.

[Male Shell employee]

The opportunities to build a life within Shell,

[Male Shell employee]

as well as it just being the place where you work, are immense.

[Female Shell employee]

So it's a very friendly environment,

[Male Shell employee]

And it’s an environment where after a month you kind of feel like you know everyone
