I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at GE Aerospace in Oct 2014
Interview
Received HR email within days of my application, and had the first round phone interview with HR the next day. Mostly generic; covering work experience, education, and salary expectations. Approximately 30 minutes.
A second round phone interview was conducted the following with with the department manager and the software architect. Very techincal interview - both in a technical sense and in a leadership experience sense.
The third round was an all day ordeal in the office. It involved meeting a significant portion of the department, and interviewing in 45 minute increments with most of them. Not quite as technical, much more situational. Still very mentally taxing, but everyone was very nice and supportive.

Interview
I first had contact with the company at a career fair. I got a call that night from a different representative solely to schedule a local interview for the next morning. The interview itself consisted of two employees relaying a set of situational questions. I got an offer in an email the next day. The personnel that I talked to were knowledgeable, empathetic, and genuinely interested in the company.
