I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at FDM Group in Feb 2016
Interview
I completed an assessment centre at FDM. It was suspiciously easy (i.e no group exercise, very short interviews and very basic tests). Essentially, if you complete an assessment day at any other high profile software engineering company and compare it to FDM's you'll understand what I mean. This led me to research them a bit more online and I've seen some shocking reviews on the company and their graduate scheme. Having completed other far more challenging and interesting assessment centres since as well as receiving considerably better offers, I've declined FDM's offer and would I would not recommend them unless you're desperate. Their business model and selling point is that they can get you into big companies as a consultant; if you're ambitious enough and good enough, just apply directly to these big employers. FDM deceive naive graduates attracted by a quick and easy application process. The best graduate schemes are difficult and filter out the right candidates in quite some detail. I feel like you barely have to try with FDM. Furthermore, they have no limit on how many people they recruit and you're easily disposable in the first 12 weeks of unpaid training. Wouldn't recommend this company to any ambitious graduate particularly in software engineering. There's a lot more lucrative, challenging and rewarding schemes out there. Nothing worth having is easy.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Basic competency questions and motivations for applying, nothing technical. Interviews are very short so not too stressful. You see about 3 different interviewers.
Really fun 2 part process. They want to know more about personality as they teach you the tech side. The process involved different interviewers and different break out rooms were you met other candidates.

Quite easy just prepare know know list, tupple, dictionary and counters. Technical questions are ok but just be professional for the business interview. Some might do well and some might do badly but its ok just take it in stride.
