I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at FDM Group (New York, NY) in Nov 2017
Interview
Initially, had a phone interview with the company, then a video strengths-based interview asking general interview questions such as "what would you do in this situation" etc. Afterwards, spent a day at the headquarters for assessments and more interviews. Assessments covered various topics with different lengths with 3 interviews after. First, was the Technical interview more geared to ask about knowledge in software as well as asking direct programming questions about Java. Other interviews were simple behavioral and logical ones asking general interview questions as well. FDM got back to me within two days but unfortunately not with an offer for their academy program.

Interview
The assessment day consists of several hour long exams, an aptitude test and three short interviews. For the tests revise gcse level mathematics and basic set theory and you will be fine. The interviews are 'strength based' so they will focus on your personality rather than competencies. you can't thoroughly prepare for this but as examples are always helpful i would suggest thinking of some specific experiences you may want to share with them
