<Grace> and hopefully I'll be able to

travel more with Shell.

00:00:39:19->00:00:42:02

00:00:49:10->00:00:54:00

<Tegan> I joined the Graduate program under

the 'Upstream' logistics discipline.

00:00:54:15->00:00:58:02

<Georgina> When I go for a run, I listen to

'Summertime Sadness' on repeat

00:00:58:02->00:01:02:01

<Georgina> for as long as it takes me to finish,

It's really lame!

00:01:03:07->00:01:06:17

<Georgina> My name's Georgina - I studied

Economics and Commerce at University.

00:01:06:17->00:01:09:13

<Georgina> I've joined Shell as a

Commercial Graduate.

00:01:10:07->00:01:12:18

<Georgina> My first role has been as an

Economist.

00:01:13:06->00:01:15:12

Nick> I've a rock collection that I

started when I was seven years old,

00:01:15:12->00:01:20:02

<Nick> I have about 25 rocks - at least one

from every country I've ever visited.

00:01:20:02->00:01:21:22

<Nick> My favourite one's actually

a fossilised shell

00:01:21:22->00:01:25:12

<Nick> which I found in Spain and it's

about 280 million years old.

00:01:26:00->00:01:26:19

<Nick> My name's Nick.

00:01:26:19->00:01:30:03

<Nick> At University I studied Maths,

Physics and Geology.

00:01:30:03->00:01:33:22

<Nick> I joined the 'Geoscience'

discipline of the grad programme.

00:01:34:08->00:01:35:15

<Nick> It's really good working off

shore,

00:01:35:15->00:01:37:07

<Royden> I hear a lot of stories about

the world

00:01:37:07->00:01:39:18

<Royden> some of them may not be true -

but they're still entertaining.

00:01:40:00->00:01:43:24

<Royden> My name is Royden. At University I

studied Mechanical Engineering.

00:01:43:24->00:01:47:13

<Royden> I joined the Well Engineering

discipline of the graduate program.

00:01:47:13->00:01:49:23

<Royden> One of the things that attracted

me to Shell

00:01:49:23->00:01:53:06

<Royden> was its' training program.

I’ve been on the program for three years

00:01:53:06->00:01:55:20

<Royden> and it's far surpassed

my expectations.

00:01:57:13->00:02:00:24

<Nick> I joined the Shell Graduate program

I think for a few reasons

00:02:00:24->00:02:02:23

<Nick> The first one was, it's a world

class company

00:02:02:23->00:02:04:22

<Nick> with a growing Upstream presence

in Australia

00:02:04:22->00:02:08:16

<Nick> Second was the challenging,

exciting projects it's involved in

00:02:08:16->00:02:11:24

<Nick> and the third was the investment

and emphasis

00:02:11:24->00:02:13:19

<Nick> they place on training and development

of graduates.

00:02:14:08->00:02:16:21

<Tegan> My supervisors give me a

lot of opportunity

00:02:16:21->00:02:21:12

<Tegan>to work on projects where I don't

necessarily have the skill set,

00:02:21:12->00:02:25:12

<Tegan>but when I work with them, they

provide me the support and guidance

00:02:25:12->00:02:27:07

<Tegan>and it's such a great sense of

achievement

00:02:27:07->00:02:29:21

<Tegan> doing something that you

didn't think you could do.

00:02:30:07->00:02:31:20

<Giles> There's a whole range of training

that you go through

00:02:31:20->00:02:34:00

<Giles> to balance both the technical

knowledge you need

00:02:34:00->00:02:35:09

<Giles> with the practical experience,

00:02:35:09->00:02:37:08

<Giles> that will help you do your job

better in the future.

00:02:37:08->00:02:41:02

<Georgina> There's a really big culture

around mentoring young people

00:02:41:02->00:02:42:02

<Georgina> in the organisation.

00:02:42:02->00:02:44:06

<Georgina> People really care about my

learning,

00:02:44:06->00:02:47:06

<Georgina>my development, the kinds of

experiences that I'm getting

00:02:47:06->00:02:50:19

<Georgina>and making sure that I get to work

on a variety of projects.

00:02:50:19->00:02:52:10

<Royden> As a 'Performance Drilling

Supervisor',

00:02:52:10->00:02:56:00

<Royden> my current roster I worked

28 days on the rig and 28 days off,

00:02:56:00->00:02:58:10

<Royden> that's 28 days of holidays - not

time in the office.

00:02:59:02->00:03:03:00

<Georgina> Shell allows me to achieve a

flexible working arrangement

00:03:03:00->00:03:05:03

<Georgina> by providing me things like

flexi-days,

00:03:05:03->00:03:07:21

<Georgina> where I can take a long weekend

every now and then

00:03:07:21->00:03:09:22

<Georgina> and when I need to, I can

also work from home.

00:03:09:22->00:03:13:20

<Grace> Shell has a very 'encouraging'

culture,

00:03:13:20->00:03:16:07

<Grace> I definitely feel that I can be

myself at Shell.

00:03:16:07->00:03:17:21

<Royden> Shell's always looking at ways

00:03:17:21->00:03:20:17

<Royden> in which they can include new

technologies into their business,

00:03:20:17->00:03:24:09

<Royden> to do the job safer and in a

more efficient manner.

00:03:25:01->00:03:25:19

<Grace> If Shell was a person,

00:03:25:19->00:03:29:22

<Grace> I would describe him as a bright

and innovative person

00:03:29:22->00:03:33:12

<Grace> who really supports their friends.

Is always there for them.

00:03:33:23->00:03:36:07

<Tegan> I love coming to work at Shell

because every day

00:03:36:07->00:03:37:06

<Tegan> I learn something new,

00:03:37:06->00:03:39:22

<Tegan> something interesting,

that I didn't know before.
