GE Capital?

Hi,

I'm a junior and I talked to a guy at GE and he said that there's a small chance that he would be able to set up something for me during the summer at the GE capital division he works in and, if I do well, a really good chance to get placed into GE FMP or similar GE corp rotational program afterward. Looking at his background, he has experience in project financing and whatnot, so I'm guessing that my internship will involve work similar to this. He said, however, that if I want this, I need to respond very quickly so that he can talk to the right people and they can plan how to integrate me. I was wondering if this is a good opportunity for me to take and if this could potentially lead to executive positions later on or even strategy consulting/top 10-15 MBAs in case I decide corp finance isn't for me? I know it isn't BB banking, but getting into that right away is going to be a long shot, plus this will be in the country that I intend to work in and the guy will be working closely with me so I should hopefully get good experience and a good contact if I perform well. Any thoughts/advice?

 

GE FMP is a two-year rotation (four six-month placements in FP&A, Controllership, Pricing, etc.). After the two years, you can either stay with your business (GE Capital) as an analyst or you can apply to join the corporate audit staff, where you would be basically a consultant of all of GE's businesses.

It's a solid job if you want to work for GE long-term. The exit opportunities are fairly limited, as many FMPs do not go to business school, but GE is always good to have on your resume if that's your best option.

When one man, for whatever reason, has an opportunity to lead an extraordinary life, he has no right to keep it to himself.
 

This is probably a stupid question but how does CAS differ from FMP? Based on my Google search, it seems like CAS is what you do AFTER FMP, but what happens if you don't make it into CAS after FMP and how do exit opps differ for each?
