I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at FDM Group
Interview
Applied online before given a phone interview.
During the phone interview, we spent 10 minutes or so on my background before telling me about the position.
They asked if I was willing to relocate, which I wasn't, they responded that it would be more difficult to land a job in the Tri-State area but he continued to explain the position.
First would be 6-8 weeks of training to be a Java consultant. It was paid hourly ( low tens) for that time. Afterwards they match you up with a company. This entails working for FDM Group as a consultant for this company for 2 years. The pay was ~45k, non-negotiable. That is much less than market salary. When asked why this was the case they said, "we know that there's a 2 year experience gap that's hard for new graduates to overcome so we want to help with that."
When I asked what would happen if I decided to quit the contract before 2 years was up. They said I would be fined 20-30k because depending on when I quit since it was the cost of training that they invested.
Would not recommend.
I applied online. I interviewed at FDM Group (Atlanta, GA)
Interview
The interview started with getting asked some question on ym background and was professional and the interviewer was nice. Then after there was an assessment on HackRank with a Java object oriented problem and a leetcode type problem. I ended up messing up the leetcode problem and got rejected but overall this was a good experience with FDM Group.

Hackerrank test which involved basic problem solving but then a coding assignment at the end. Lockdown browser was needed and webcam was on. Timed assessment but plenty of time. Also had phone call interview.
