      Patent Engineer Interview

      Average interview

      Application

      The process took 1 day. I interviewed at GE (Trevose, PA) in Jan 2010

      Interview

      After an initial phone interview, I was invited onsite. That interview was one-on-one with various management and personnel, each meeting lasting about 30-45 minutes. Unfortunately, I was not sent my meeting itinerary until I had arrived in Trevose the night before, thus it was near impossible to prepare for the individuals. Although the members I met were generally friendly, it seemed like the place was run like a sweat shop. After the meeting, I spoke with a family friend who worked at the site for 2 years and he confirmed my fears about the culture. Reimbursement for the interview was a nightmare! It took about 3 months of continuos follow-up and getting the run-around. They should be ashamed of themselves.

      Question 1

      None, the questions were straight forward and reasonable.
