Interviewed Feb 2011 (took a day)
The interview consisted entire of fit type questions and questions about my resume. The most important thing is to be able to answer why GE. That is the most important question since they are teaching you everything they don't ask any technicals. They also ask you questions to see how you reason and problem solve. Like how many ping pong balls could fit ina 747. they don't care about the answer since they don't know but it is more to see how you work through a problem.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Stamford, CT (took 2 days)
I was referred to the position by a recruiter. The initial phone interview was relatively short. The position required someone who was bi-lingual so the interview was conducted in two languages. I admitted I was a bit rusty on my vocabulary in business and legal terms but that I could pick it up in a few days so long as I was submersed in the language. Conversationally, I knew I could get by but I knew there is a formal business and legal approach in Spanish (like in English) that one has to adapt to come across in a more professional demeanor. First person I spoke to was nice and their questions were straight and to the point. During the entire course of the phone discussion, they were working on something else and I could hear it (i.e. typing, being muted, muffled voice on the other side). I took it as they were incredibly busy (hence the need to hire someone), first time interviewing a candidate or some combination of the two. Either way I was indifferent. They ended the call indicating their manager would call me to talk to me as they thought I would be a good candidate.
A few days later the manager called. Questions were not as direct in my capabilities as they were more of behavioral in nature. I thought I answered questions appropriately and was advised that they were also looking at other candidates so that I would either get a response from them or from the recruiter. I sensed that was probably not a good thing. I use to work as a hiring manager and that use to be my typical response for a candidate that I thought would be good but may not be an ideal fit because they may leave for something else in less than a year. The manager never called back... I followed-up with the recruiter they never responded... not sure what the heck happened.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Latham, NY (took 2 days)
I had a face-to-face interview with GE Corporate. I met individually with about 8 guys - different managers including the hiring manager. Then I interviewed over the phone with the CIO. At the end, he informed me that the key qualification that they are looking for was someone who could interact with the off-shore team of Oracle DBAs in India. I asked him how large was that group - he said 89 DBAs. There were very few DBAs on-site.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Erie, PA (took a day)
Have worked for the company for many years and decided to transfer to another business, therefore the interview may have been different than those given to outside candidates. The most important peice of advice is to be honest about who you are and your qualifications. Do not try to be someone you are not. This company has a reputation to secure, so maintain professionalism, even for hourly jobs, and if hired and given a chance, prove to be worthy. You must work hard and quality is key. They hold you to high standards, anything less will not be tolerated.
