I applied through college or university. I interviewed at FDM Group
Interview
The interview felt a bit sketchy. I applied through my campus and received an invitation for phone interview a while ago. A few red flags with the interview. First, the interviewer requested a last minute schedule change, which is totally unexpected. I agreed to the schedule change, but had to actually call in to remind the interview. Second, the recruiter seemed she knew nothing about the position. I noticed that because there were a lot of awkward silences / waiting for her to respond. A strong feel that she was reading questions off a piece of paper. Also had to end up explaining to her the summary of the job and requirements. Third, when the interview was over, the recruiter reached out days later requesting the exact same interview. Had to explain to her the interview was already finished, which she realized it upon double checking. Still can't believe a recruiter from some consultant company lacks basic skills as an interviewer. Overall, the interview felt very bland and unprosessional.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Explain to me the position and why you are interested.
simple 3 step but they will ghost you. once they have enough candidates, they dont care how good you have performed, so its good to avoid this as the pay is also below average, look for better jobs in the market
The entire process was pretty simple. Initially you will get an arctic shores assessment which tests your analytical and problem-solving skills. Post that, you will be scheduled for an initial screening call for 20 mins with your recruiter. You will be given a hackerrank test which includes coding+sql based on the role. If you have cleared the round,, you will be invited for a final interview with the account manager

First is a hackerank. Which is then progressed through to a phone call telling us about FDM. After that is a video interview and if sucessful straight to the assessment centre.
