New Rotations, Locations, and Projects. IMLP!

In our recent Q&A post, one commenter askedhow members of the IMLP program choose each of their four six-month rotations (Background on the program: members change projects four times in two years.)

Since GE has multiple businesses, including NBC, Technology Infrastructure, Energy Infrastructure, and Capital, the rotation selection process varies depending on which GE business you are hired into.

For additional information on what's going on in the GE Businesses, visit GE Reports.

Upon arrival at GE, the first assignment is assigned to the new IMLP before they start work. Also, keep in mind that locations and projects also vary depending on the business!

For the remaining three rotations, a list of available IMLP projects is presented to all of the IMLPs in that business and the IMLP submits their preferences anonymously. Assignment Leaders (what we call our managers while on a project) also present the projects on a conference call so the IMLPs can better understand each project and ask questions.

Next, a program representative then compiles the preferences of all of the IMLPs and assigns one rotation to each.

This question is actually quite timely, as many of the GE businesses are currently participating in the rotation selection now, as rotations and projects tend to wrap up at the end of August!
