I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at GE (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2008
Interview
I was first interviewed on campus when I was in undergrad. I then was flown to Chicago where I interviewed all day with about six managerial types in this part of the business. All of the interviews were behavioral and were aimed at determining if I was a good fit. They asked a lot of questions about what I did in my free time.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at GE in Apr 2011
Interview
First was interviewed by Human Resources. A couple days later interviewed by 3 different people within the organization. Finally a couple weeks later interviewed by 2 more employees. All over the phone.
Questions asked included "What would you do in this situation" type questions. Also what are your weaknesses? Some interviewers tried to put me off to the job altogether but that was based on the nature of the FSE roll, at least that was the impression they gave.
