Pros
-Graduates get this unmatched opportunity of working with big names in financial services industry on rotational bases, which is not provided by any other graduate programs -The roles that FDM's clients (Investment Banks & Financial Services Firm) have to offer are in Entry-Mid level roles. This means that these graduates get a significant role in a big firm which they otherwise would not have got as a fresh graduate. So there's an amazing learning opportunity -It is not a recruitment firm. It trains its trainees, provide them with various certifications which would have cost them a lot if they had to do them on their own. -After working for 2 years with FDM clients, you get an opportunity to be internalised by one of them- meaning great salary and benefits at a Mid level role after just 2 years of work experience -FDM also provides international opportunities for its outstanding candidates- harder you work, more you get rewarded -FDM is a like a family to all the consultants placed at different banks and they all get together every once in a while to celebrate their journey. Events organised are great and fun
Cons
-The contract is for 2 years- however after 2 years you have a possibility to get internalised directly by one of the FDM's clients at great benefits or you could continue to work with FDM
