The process took 1 day. I interviewed at GE Aerospace (Lynn, MA) in Aug 2011
Interview
Even though this program is geared more towards engineering than the OMLP program, the interview is still 100% behavioral. Absolutely not a single question testing theoretical concepts.
The interview process begins with a 5 minute presentation about yourself. You can use the format given to you by GE or develop your own format.
Afterwords you are interviewed by five employees for 1 hour each (5 hours in total)
1st Interviewer: General Questions (Ex: What has lead you to want to work for GE Aviation?)
2nd Interviewer: Work Experience (Ex: What was the most difficult project you work in?)
3rd Interview: Scenario (Ex: Tell me of a time when you had to deal with a difficult person in a group/company)
4th Interview: EEDP Interest (Ex: Are you considering the EEDP Classic or Cornerstone Program?)
5th Interview: Interests (Ex: If you could learn more about a section of the engine what would it be?)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Q) Tell me of a time when you had trouble receiving criticism for your work
Q) What distinguishes you from your peers at your GE internship/co-op?
Q) Tell me of a time when you took a risk and how you evaluated your risk
Q) Tell me of a time when the goals of a project where changed and how you adapted
Q) What technical/academic knowledge has surprised you the most in your career?
I applied through university. I interviewed at GE Aerospace in Dec 2018
Interview
Basic Technical questions, mostly related to Mtech thesis and projects done in your academic career. The questions test your understanding as an engineer and does not test your memory. So no fact questions
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at GE Aerospace (Cincinnati, OH) in Oct 2018
Interview
Interview with 5-6 different people, mostly behavioral and project based questions. The people were very nice and gave you plenty of time to answer and ask questions. There is a team exercise at the end that allows them to see how well you work in a team, and how you think about a given problem.

Question 1
a time when I tried to learn something new because I wanted to, not because I had to?
It was a half day event of a 8 minute presentation to a panel, followed by 4 or 5 round robin style individual interviews. These were with a mix of HR and engineers.

Question 1
Mostly STAR behavioral questions, with the engineers asking similar questions but about technical projects.
