Got a call within a few hours of filling out the online application form. The call was to confirm that they have received my application form and would like me to book a telephone interview, which I did.
The telephone interview lasted approximately 15 minutes. Questions included:
- Do you know what FDM does?
- What can you bring to FDM?
- What role do you want?
- Why are you interested in this role?
- Did you enjoy your degree and would you do it again?
- Do you think university was a good thing and did it help you?
- What are some challenges that you think you would face working at FDM?
The telephone interview was relatively short and easy. A few hours after the telephone interview I received an email saying that I was through to the next stage of the application process which is an assessment day. I was told they will be in touch with me shortly with a suitable date.

Question 1
What are some challenges that you think you would face working at FDM?
J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris plus d'une semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez FDM Group (Remote) en nov. 2022
Entretien
Offer very low - NZ$40,000 training, NZ$52,000 first year, NZ$54,000 second year. $1,500 relocation bonus for Nz applicants. Software programming job not guaranteed in contract. Great for interview practice but wouldn’t bother actually working there l.
J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez FDM Group (Londres, Angleterre)
Entretien
I was initially contacted by FDM themselves via email to ask me if I was interested. I did not know how the programmer worked fully so the recruiter told me they would contact me via phone to explain.
During this phone call, I expected just an explanation however they jumped straight into the phone interview which seemed really like just a chat. They notified me I had passed the phone screening and then sent me a link via email for a video interview.
The video interview was 'strength based' questions which apparently focuses more on what you LIKE doing instead of what you CAN do.
Finally, I was invited to an assessment day. This consists of about 3 aptitude tests and 3 interview.
Finally, if you are successful they will email you within a few days.

Question 1
How would you represent FDM in a client's location or public place?
J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez FDM Group (Londres, Angleterre) en août 2016
Entretien
I was first contacted by one of FDMs recruitment team who talked to me about the job role and discussed my motivation for the job. They then sent me a link to do a short video interview.
The video interview asked me 4 questons:
1- Introduce yourself
2-Why do you want to work for FDM
3-Why do you like techonology and how do you stay up to date
4-Describe a situation where you have had to be flexible
A few days later I got a call back from the same recruiter and he talked to me about how I could improve my answers to some of the questions, but ultimately he decided to put me through to the assessment centre, which I am yet to go to.
