FDM Group interview questions

Well, This is an IT company, so if you write Unix, Linux etc you have a better chance. There is 2 way of working with this company: 1) going through their " training and replacement" process 2) apply directly. I applied for the training and replacement process. If you are an electrical or/and computer engineer or any kind of engineer please don't bother with this process. Go and apply directly for one of the jobs that interest you. You can learn whatever needs to be learn through internet really easy. They start with a recruiter on the phone "interview". The purpose of this interview is that to find out do you have any idea what you actually get into! As you probably know this is 2 year bonded contract which pays you 40k for the first year and 45k for the second (they recently raise this pay! it was even less!) Also if you breach the contract you got to pay 30k! for the training and investment they did on you! ( the training is not worth that much!) There is no way you fail this so don't sweat it that much Next round is the assessment day! you go through 2 round of 7 minutes interview ( one technical and one behavioral) and bunch of math, logic, etc problem! If you are an engineer don't sweat the tests that much. It's in grade 9 and 10 level.They give you a link for youtube videos to watch before assessment day in a brochure just watch those to refresh your memory! As you now! this is a day so you got too much time to waste! For that they give you bunch of puzzles and they claim that you are being watched through the process and how you tackle this problems! ( They treat you as a kid!) There is no way you've being watched, there is no camera and the room's door is close! some of the questions are interesting and challenging though. Eat a good breakfast, they give you a tinny lunch at 1 P.M which in my case was 6inch subway and I forgot to eat a good breakfast so I was starving. Summary: If you are in your 20s and interested in IT work sure go for it! if you are in your 30s and have no clue how IT industry work go through the process to learn. If you don't speak a good English or you are a shy guy this is not bad for you. The thing they do make sense if the bonding contract was a year not 2!

I submitted my CV on a campus recruitment fair, and got contacted by their HR one month later. Scheduled a phone interview in 5 weeks. I was told by the HR the phone interview was going to be easy, covering topics such as my experience and skills, knowledge of FDM, the graduate programme, and general IT knowledge. However, during the phone interview, I was asked in-depth questions about investment banks and the IT adaptation trends in investment banking. My knowledge in these areas were limited and I was not prepared because I was not informed of this. Then I was questioned why I applied for a job in IT and finance area while my background was neither. So it ended badly. The HR promised to send me further notice by the end of that day, but it took them 3 days to send the rejection notice.
