15 mins phone interview with a recruitment consultant. This is the first process of the interview. Learn about FDM. Have basic knowledge of technical terms and you will do good.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at FDM Group (Toronto, ON) in Sep 2022
Interview
The process was pretty straightforward. First, it was a phone interview in which the recruiter asked basic questions regarding the technologies I know or have worked with. My latest joining dates, if I was comfortable with the 2 years commitment.
After that, they sent me an assessment that consisted of 2 different parts. First, a one-sided video interview had 4 questions regarding my professional life, focusing on soft skills. The second part was a technical assessment consisting of 20 MCQs (OOPS, Database, DS & A, logical and Aptitude).
The third step was 2 virtual video interviews with an account manager and academy trainer.
