I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at FDM Group (Manchester, England) in Apr 2013
Interview
We were given a talk on FDM as a company, which included a few participants voicing concerns they had read online whilst researching the company. The phrase "we're not bad people" was used in response to this regarding enforcement of the contract. Easy to understand both sides of this argument and having not been down the road with FDM I'm slightly relieved I didn't have the opportunity. This isn't to say it's impossible to have a good experience with them, I think it would depend on the person and other factors like employment location and who you're likely to work with.
A couple of the sales team seemed like stereotypical wide boy characters and it was a bit of a surprise to see people like this working for an IT services company. That said, most people were pleasant and straightforward to deal with.
Myself and another applicant were told at the end of the interview that we weren't suitable for the role which was more than likely based on our interviews as the tests couldn't have been marked in this time. I couldn't really get excited about working in finance and perhaps this was also evident in the other applicants interview. Without sounding too crass we seemed to be the only people there not in awe of the opportunity and who were asking the kind of questions that the company must routinely face, regarding enforcement of contract, and employment locations.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at FDM Group (Montreal, QC) in Jun 2024
Interview
Had multiple rounds:
1st round HR
2nd round group interview
3rd round Manager interview
-----------------------------------
Had multiple rounds of interviews in a span of 2-3 weeks.
1st round typical HR interview. 2nd round, a group interview where they talk about the company, who they are, and what they do. Afterwards, you get interview by someone for a tech interview. 3rd interview is about you.
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at FDM Group (Sydney) in Jul 2020
Interview
The interview for me was done over the phone. I don't remember who interviewed me, but they went out of their way to make the interview as comfortable as possible. The questions were pretty standard for someone who knows has sufficient technical skills. I didn't quite do well when it came to communicating my points but I did use that experience and improved myself for the next interview.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at FDM Group (Serangoon, ) in Jan 2020
Interview
Started with a telephone interview which asked about background and some brain teasers.
This was then followed up with an Assessment Centre on site at their office. The AC began with an aptitude and set notation test and followed by three separate interviews. Entire AC took about 4 hours.
