The process took 1 day. I interviewed at FDM Group
Interview
5hour-interview, 3 interview tests are fairly easy as long as you know basic math from high school, it would be fine. 2 one-on-one interview (7minute each) would be more important to decide whether you could get the offer or not. Account manager would ask you some basic interview questions from your resume such as why you choose this program to study in university, why you choose to be an analyst, tell me a big project you have done before. Techinical interviewer would ask you anything regard to your skills from your resume and want to hear examples from you. Therefore, if you fully prepared questions from your resume and be with critcial thingking, make them feel like you are 100% sure this is the industry and jobs you want in your career and there's no other back up options, then you should be fine for the interview.
