I DO NOT RECOMMEND FDM UNLESS IT IS YOUR ONLY OPTION The recruitment process was not difficult. Here are the stages below. 1. Apply online: if you have above a 2:2 you will most likely get a telephone screening interview which is stage 2 2. Telephone screening: This call is to understand your motivations for the specific role and other HR questions. 3. Online Assessments: If you have done psychometric online tests this should be very straightforward. Unlike most companies, the number of questions is significantly more! Practice similar questions in pattern recognition, numerical reasoning verbal reasoning etc., to ensure you are well prepared. 4. Virtual Assessment Centre: An opportunity to meet fellow applicants with 3 15min interviews with different FDM employees in break-out rooms. Very much so your standard competency interview. 5. If you are successful you will receive the employment offer. Unfortunately, Grad Cracker and other job websites advertise a higher starting salary post-training. Please expect the salary to be no more than £25k. The salary progression within those two years will be sluggish and there is a lot of uncertainty about where you will be placed after your training. Honestly, a very unfortunate contract and you should consider other companies like Kubrick before committing. Lastly, with the amount of learning material on the internet, you can do this training at home with self-discipline with no extra cost or contractual binding. If FDM is your only option, be prepared to commit for two years at a relatively low salary. I hope FDM re-thinks the benefits to graduates to help them with the cost of living and well-being.
