After the internship, the department manager will also interview the intern, summarize the performance during the internship, and feedback the outstanding interns to the company's human resources department as a future campus recruitment talent reserve. In order to recruit outstanding talents in the school, we require the CEOs of each business unit to participate in the recruitment activities. We also invite colleagues who have graduated from these schools to return to their alma mater and present their opinions to the graduates.

The project targets high-quality, high-potential individuals and trains them to become financial management talents with both professional skills and strategic thinking. The project has a high reputation in the management schools of Fudan University, Jiaotong University, Peking University, and Tsinghua University. As the first step in cultivating financial management talent, the FMP program sends a large number of young talents to GE each year. Since 1995, GE has recruited 9 FMP students in China. Currently, 40 students are working on this project, and each team is growing.
