Interviewed Jun 2010 in New York, NY (took a day)
Interviewed with a Project Manager. Described the systems we were working on, and what was expected. Wanted to find out what technical experience I had, and what I could bring to the team. Asked if I had training experience, and when. Did I meet deadlines? How did I accomplish obstacles? Do you consider yourself a proactive self-starter. Experience matters there too. Overall a very comfortable interview, great company and people to work with.

Interviewed Apr 2012 in New Orleans, LA (took 3 weeks)
Applied directly online, no recruiter / headhunter.
1. Initial phone call with outsourced HR person, nothing technical, just going over background as it related to position. Discussion of current salary.
2. Phone call with hiring manager. A few technical questions relating to query design and optimization. Reviewed background and position responsibilities. Some behavioral questions.
3. Phone call with SME. Extremely technical, 15-20 challenging questions covering a wide-array of DB architecture topics from data partitioning, query / index optimization, data modeling, etc..
4. Phone call with hiring manager's manager. Non-technical, behavioral questions.
5. Interview with HR manager. Behavioral questions, general discussion of GE Capital / GE.
Offer came a few days after speaking with HR manager.
Overall I felt the interview process was very challenging yet fair, and they obviously put some effort into weeding out less than qualified candidates. I wouldn't suggest GE Capital as a place to interview if you're planning on using the "I'll fake it to get the job, then read some books" strategy. You need to have had experience with the core functional areas of the position, or else they'll immediately know you're out of your league.

Interviewed Dec 2011 in Norwalk, CT (took 9 months)
I applied for the position online in June and several weeks later I received a telephone interview which, I was told, was very positive. Over two months passed before I was brought in for a day of 6 consecutive 45 minute interviews. Another two months passed with no contact whatsoever. Still seeing the job posted on the GE website, I contacted HR to find out if I was still being considered. I was told yes. It wasn't until Dec. that I was brought in to interview with someone who was just hired to be the immediate supervisor of the person who would get the position. At that interview, I was told that GE was looking to hire a new leader of that group, and I would be brought back to interview with that person as soon as he/she was hired. I went on the GE website in February to check my status only to find I was rejected in November, a month prior to my last in-person interview. I next contacted GE Capital by e-mail at the end of February and was informed that I was not being considered, with no other explanation. Yet another two months passed with no word and no status listed. I don't understand why they didn't have the decency to contact me rather than letting me keep my hopes up.

I received an initial interview through my university. The first interview was the more behavioral based interview. The interviewer was an alum of my university so she was nice and friendly and worked with me on many questions. This interviewed lasted about 30-35 minutes. This interview took place on a thursday and she got back to me the following monday telling me I was being recommended for the next round of interviews. The next round of interviews was on site in Connecticut. The first night they took the group of potential candidates to a orientation and overview of the company then out to dinner. The next morning was had to go through a many case study as a group, then a presentation of on a topic of choice, then 2 interviews.
