GE on Campus Recruiting Banners: Live @ Syracuse UniversityPreparing for an interview is a multi-step process, filled with a variety of resources that can help you out.
1) Campus Career Center: Your college's career center is a great place to start for advice. Not only can you set up a mock interview, have someone review your resume and give you tips - but chances are they've done the same for someone else who's interviewed at GE.
If you're not at a campus right now, or if you're looking for additional assistance, visit and read up on career center blogs at different universities and leverage some good content. Check out Dan Schwabel's Student Branding blog as well for some tips.
2) GE Reports: To learn more about GE and what the company is up to, visit GE's official "blog - GE reports, watch a few of the YouTube videos, and consider following GE Reports on twitter if twitter's your thing.
3) The Right Outfit: Determine what you're going to wear a few days in advance, so you can make sure everything fits and it's been dry cleaned lately. In college it's sometimes challenging to remember the last time you wore that suit...
4) Practice: As mentioned in #1, set up a mock interview with your campus career center, or even with a mentor. This will help make you more comfortable in the interview and assist with the best way to answer questions that may come your way.
5). Sleep: Sure, it sounds pretty basic, but don't forget this one. You'll need sleep to be at your best (especially if your interview is in the morning).
