Processing and Retention

GE Aerospace processes Candidate Data for human resources and business management purposes. These include identifying and evaluating candidates for GE Aerospace positions; record-keeping related to hiring processes; analyzing the hiring process and outcomes; and conducting background checks, where permitted by law. Furthermore, to evaluate conflicts of interest, GE Aerospace may ask for past experiences in working for a government. This refers to both, you as the applicant yourself, as well as third parties like business partners or relatives. In addition, GE Aerospace may use certain Candidate Data (1) as required by law; (2) to protect, establish or defend GE Aerospace’s legal rights to the extent authorized or permitted by law; (3) in an emergency where the health or safety of a candidate or other individual may be endangered; (4) to ensure the security and confidentiality of property (including intellectual property, business operations, assets and information); or (5) to prevent, detect, or investigate suspected fraud, illegal activity, or violations of company policies or legal or regulatory obligations, or other misconduct. If a candidate is hired, Candidate Data may be used in connection with his/her employment consistent with GE Aerospace’s employment data protection policies.

In addition to using Candidate Data for the position for which you have applied, GE Aerospace may retain and use your Candidate Data to consider you for other positions. If you do not want to be considered for other positions or would like to have your Candidate Data removed, you may contact GE Aerospace as specified under Inquiries, Complaints, Objections and Restrictions below.

Automated Tools/Decisions: GE Aerospace may use automated tools, including artificial intelligence (AI), as part of our recruitment process to help screen and filter resumes and application materials, identify skills and qualifications relevant to the role, and support fraud detection (for example, by identifying indicators of false or inconsistent information). We have processes to audit our AI tools to help ensure fairness and prevent bias on the basis of protected characteristics.
