Had a career program with GE recruiting team and they explained how and what they look out for in CV.I will explain that later. Though it was an eye opener,but I discovered that most of their jobs is based on internal referal. Their processes can be discouraging. Though some people who school in Nigeria are employed,the bulk is foreign degrees that the want.
Truth is don't hope on GE unless you want serious heartbreak .
Keep an open mind when applying.
this is serious..means I need to ge my runs handy to be sure of working with GE...

Good morning my people.Like i promised i want to share a tip and something i discovered about GE and their recruitment.
NOTE-this may not entirely be workable or true in all situation,but to a large extent it works.
There is a pattern of CV the need,the conventional cv is not usually what they look out for.
The following is what they want to see;
1.Your defined job description eg I carried out a WEEKLY auditing of the account books for their 50 customers,I did a DAILY inspection of the 10 production machines,I TAUGHT a class of 20 mathematics students on a daily basis.
They expect you to have a near accurate figure or quantification of what you did in your past and present job.

2.Ensure that you use the same FONT size an pattern in all your cv. Dont use CALIBRI and then TIMES NEW ROMAN,OR size 10 and 14 together.
3.Avoid unnecessary BOLD,ITALIC and the rest.
4.Make use of professional words that are related to the job description and position you are talking about ( there is a software that sieves CV) and know that those KEYWORDS are the things the look out for.
5.GE hates error and mistakes in you cv,it shows how careless and unserious you are .If you can not proof-read your cv before submitting then you are not fit to be hired.
6.Avoid BULLET POINTS and if you must use it then let it be.....but where needed.

Finally keep your cv as simple as possible.
GE doesn't want to see your LGA,RELIGION,AGE ON YOUR CV
They give equal opportunity to all applicants.
DISCLAIMER-This is my humble opinion from experience and it is in no way an official information from GE.
Cheers

Good for you. Remember I said these points I raised does not always work. But can be useful to someone out there..did you try to mail their recruitment team? Was there any reply? If not try send them a mail. But have at the back of ur mind the possibility that the position has been filled long ago. Else u can still be hopeful.
