Pros

Great opportunities to work with some of the biggest companies in Europe. Competition is not very high therfore chances of getting in are

Cons

Treated like a human resource rather than a human. Have to be geographically flexible in the UK and could be sent out to a site on a days notice

Pros

Was difficult finding a job upon graduating from university. FDM gave me the 'foot through the door' so to speak that allowed me to have the experience I needed to be attractive for other employers

Cons

could get paid a little more but I guess a grads with no experience would be similar

Business Outlook

Pros

• Hire based on aptitude • Great route into IT sector with well-known clients • Very little prior experience needed • Whilst not a qualification as such, FDM's reputation proceeds you, commanding a great deal of respect in the workplace • Support from trainers is excellent and very easy to access • Staff are approachable at all times and create a comfortable atmosphere for trainees' development

Cons

• Intensive course; fantastic for learning quickly but difficult to catch up if you begin to fall behind in any given module • Certain modules of the course can feel unbalanced (it's routinely commented that the Unix programme in particular is a little over-loaded for a single week's study) whilst others (Pro Skills) perhaps don't require the full week devoted to them • Unpaid training period is a barrier to entry for those without savings/similar
