I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at FDM Group (Londres, Inglaterra) in Aug 2021
Interview
The interview process is thorough but not too challenging. The order goes:
- Telephone interview
- Online assessments
- Final Interview
I was contacted my times throughout the process by the recruiter and he even suggested some online events for learning more about the Data industry.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell us about something that interests you and why it interests you?
asked about account managere and tech interview questions, such as 5y plan, how to solve difficult porblems, how to deal with teammates, how to swap a b variables, how does sql storing works, how to split string in python
Process took such a long time unfortunately. Took a whole year from when I first applied to when I 'got the job' after going through their whole recruitment process. After 3 months of no contact, I was told that they wouldn't have a start date. Unfortunate but doesn't seem organised

Question 1
Experience dealing with close deadlines, what I liked about the field, etc
About a week after filling it out, I received a call from HR, who briefly introduced the company details and made an appointment for the first online video interview next week.
The email said the interview lasted 25 minutes, but it actually lasted 35 minutes. It was all in English and asked a lot of questions.
