I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Shell (Calgary, AB) in Sept 2011
Interview
Had a 3-hour interview with manager & HR. It revolved around the information my resume + behavioural questions. Pretty elaborate, I would say. Interview was held in a very professional manner, both HR & manager took lots of notes. Prior to an interview had to sign-off background check release for the verification of education, employment history & references and for criminal record check, and also was requested to provide two copies of ID. Got an offer with sign-off bonus. With an offer I received new forms for background check, a separate form for drug test, and a request to provide copy of the degree certificate.
Interview questions [1]

You are a CEO. There is a press-conference, related to an accident, involving your equipment. One of the journalists stated that your company buys cheap parts and makes profit by saving on safety. Your response? Note that the response will be translated on TV.
I applied through university. I interviewed at Shell (Austin, TX) in Oct 2019
Interview
The first round was easy. It was a pre-recorded interview. They asked basic personal question. The second round was a case study that they give you time to prepare for. I probably would have made it if I had known how case study goes, but I didn't.
I completed the online tests, and then did a behavioural interview online. Basic behavioural questions. However, the online interview was not conducted with a person. Simply answer questions by recording yourself.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Shell (Calgary, AB) in Oct 2016
Interview
I went through the online application process and after about a month I received a call about an interview. The interview was over the phone with an engineer and lasted over an hour. Basic behavioural questions and you also have time at the end to ask them anything. They went in great detail with my questions. You apply for a general engineering position with Shell and then if you do well in the interview they will find a place that best suits you.
