I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at FDM Group in Dec 2023
Interview
First was a virtual interview, including written and recorded answers. Second was a behavioral and technical interview, both done back to back and with an account manager and training manager, respectively. Finally was a behavioral interview with a lead account manager.

Question 1
Technical interview: Java concepts, OOP concepts, a few SQL questions
The interview process was quite lengthy and disjointed. There were significant gaps between stages, with the recruiter sometimes disappearing for weeks before getting back to me about the next steps. The phone screening was particularly time-consuming, lasting about an hour and a half, which is quite unusual for an initial phone interview. The recruiter asked very detailed questions, more suited to a later stage of the process. Despite setting clear boundaries around my availability, these were not respected, as they continued to call at inconvenient times even after I had communicated my schedule.
