Help & faqs

Will I work outside my home country?

In most cases your first assignment will be in your home country. However, because we are a global company, the job you are matched with may mean relocating abroad. In Europe, for example, your application will be considered both for opportunities in the country you are studying/living in and across the region. You are welcome to note your location preferences on your application. One of the exciting dynamics of working for Shell is the possibility of a future posting outside your home country.

Which countries have graduate opportunities?

We have graduate employment opportunities in most of the countries where we operate. In some countries where we have a higher operating presence we are able to offer more opportunities – for example the Netherlands, United Kingdom, Germany, United States, China, Malaysia, Qatar and Nigeria.

What types of job are available?

We offer graduate opportunities in many different technical and commercial fields. Use our Degree Matcher
