I Can't Believe 6 Months Have Passed By Already

Mikey B. - 2nd Rotation IMLP - GE AviationI recently completed my first rotation and cannot believe 6 months have passed by already. Looking back, I can see that I have made a great deal of progress within this small period of time.  Coming into GE on the IMLP program, I had very little knowledge about GE Aviation, the IT environment, and the overall business itself.  I struggled, at first, getting a grasp on everything but that is generally expected with new hires into a large company.

During my first rotation, I worked with the Oracle Purchasing, which I previously had no experience working with. By the end of the rotation I had learned enough to help administer the application and train our end users on various purchasing functions.  I am looking forward to continuing into my second rotation and expanding on my knowledge base.

Fortunately, I found support wherever I turned and I recognized everyone at GE was willing to help me out.  I was able to interact with IT leadership and gain advice on future career goals, which has been very beneficial on deciding which rotations I want to experience in the future. With the consistent feedback I received from managers and leaders, I can apply this knowledge to make my second rotation an even better experience.
