Overview
Data analysis using Excel, communicating with team members around the world, reading market reports, observing and supporting traders, networking across the company.
Skills
I developed a much stronger understanding of futures, options, swaps, risk management, hedging and commodities trading. My data analytics skills significantly increased. I also became much better at communicating with colleagues and became more confident in myself.
Responsibilities
I was given projects that would make a real impact to the company and I was given responsibilities early on.
Support & Guidance
I communicated daily with my line manager who helped and guided me on various tasks. Team members all wanted to support my learning and gave me time to shadow or ask questions about their work.
Culture
There was a culture around succeeding together as a team which meant that everyone was willing to give me hours of their time to ask questions and learn. It was a very good learning environment and everyone I networked with across the company really wanted to get to know me.
Your Impressions
I had a very positive experience throughout my placement and really enjoyed my time working.
Yes
Really do your research about the company and commodities. Try to network with people at Shell, it is more than likely they will be happy to reach out.
