I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at GE (Burlington, ON) in Jan 2008
Interview
Very engaging/charming; they really try to wow' candidates with all the benefits and advantages of joining GE but note that the actual boss on the assignment was not part of the interviewing group and I was deceived into thinking that the job would be as good. Also the interview location is not the office location and they make no mention of the actual assignment and the job/tasks you will be doing. All a great lesson for future interviews!
