How is it to work for Shell oil as a trader?

Quote from Port1385:

You dont even know my background except for what you have grasped and guessed from my posts.

It's well established that you are clueless, stupid & emotional like a little spoiled girl.

You don't qualify. You don't even have the background for it and you do need a certain academic background or experience. The entry level jobs to get experience are basically handed out to friends & relatives. A monkey can do half of the scheduling & trading of power. And sometimes, they do.
 
I have to agree that most jobs like that go to friends or people in the know. Same with Real Time. The day they open most are filled within a few days and HR has to post online for the required 5 days. I dont see how a job like that would not be filled internally with a exp volume analyst. Thats what my shop does.

This guy does not have a clue about the physical gas markets... I do not think you have a chance. Gas Scheduling is not "fire fighting", but rather a complicated and important part of gas trading that requires an in depth understanding of the physical mkts..
 
From the presumed job description posted by the OP:
Preference will be given to the candidate who holds the broadest knowledge base of Pacific Northwest region pipelines and local distribution companies experience.
So how's your knowledge of northwest region pipelines and the local distribution companies? That'll tell you your odds of being hired.

And I don't know how to say this without sounding like a dick, so I'll just say it: you're willing to work hard for a year before landing a plum job? A whole year? Damn kid, you're a regular fireball!

*eye roll*

Any employer should run screaming.
