Interviewed Oct 2011 (took a day)
I started by talking to the recruiters at the career fair, they seemed like they were interested in me so I had a follow up e-mail from the hiring manager a few weeks after. The manager decided to have a phone interview with me. The interview was full of behavior types of questions back to back for about thirty minutes. My advise is to study general interview questions just to get familiar with the questions before the real interview.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Kansas City, MO (took 2 weeks)
I was contacted by a recruiter who set up my first meeting with the hiring manager. We discussed their goals and I told him that I can guarantee success because I've already lead a huge company through the exact same process. He was excited and a second phone interview was set up for two days later. This call only lasted about 30 minutes of the hour allotted time. This interviewer said that he could hear the confidence in my voice and that he felt I could bring them success based on my experience. He then said he would set up the third and last phone interview.
I never heard anything back for over a week and I contacted my recruiter who informed me that they have decided to go another direction for this position. I wasn't sure if I didn't meet their qualifications or if they genuinely chose to go in a different direction. Needless to say, they didn't call or email me to let me know that I was no longer being considered for this position. Instead I was under the impression that everything was going well and that I was waiting for the third interview to be set up.

Interviewed May 2011 in Melbourne, FL (took a day)
Interview started with phone interview with HR, then phone interview with 2 or 3 managers. This was followed by on-site interview in Melbourne, FL.
The on-site interview included interviews with hiring manager, several engineers and HR representative. Total people interviewed with was 7. That is almost too much for one day.
Several difficult questions of a technical nature were asked.

Interviewed Apr 2011 (took 4+ weeks)
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.

Met with the recruiter at the booth and she asked me if I wanted an interview the next day. We had the interview and she handed me the offer at the end, she was very knowledgeable about the position and straight forward. I really appreciated the instant feedback and efficiency of the process!

Interviewed Nov 2008 in Jacksonville, FL (took 2 weeks)
Met a recruiter at a diversity event and showed him my resume and he quickly signed me up for an interview.
I had the interview the following day and it was about 30 minutes long mostly behavior type questions. Pretty straight forward typical interview.
There were no technical questions. (I am an Electrical Engineer)
I was made an offer on the spot as soon as the interview was over.

Interviewed Nov 2008 (took 2 days)
I did some networking with the HR manager, and I found that one of my mentor is just her colleague. So she asked me for an interview in Crontonville, NY. There are like 60 candidates, and the GE HR manager told us half of us would get the intern, approximately. For the first day, they did some introduction about the program we are applying for, and we all had a chance to talk with the HR managers in different systems, then we choose the systems we want to work with. That night there is an interview schedule in our room, showing us the systems we gonna interview with and the schedule. The next day isinterviews. Everyone got at least two interviews with different systems, and some got three.
