I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at FDM Group (Londres, Angleterre) in Jun 2010
Interview
It was a pleasant interview process and they asked about my university experience. However, if I got the offer they would take some money to pay for the "training".
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at FDM Group (Édimbourg, Écosse) in Oct 2012
Interview
Had a telephone interview with them. Was then invited to an assessment day in Edinburgh, wasn't particularly difficult. Filled out a multiple choice test which was the same for everybody, so if you don't know any programming you will probably struggle, I assume they mark it differently though depending on the role you are applying for. Standard enough interview questions (strengths, when did you work in a team, things like that). There was also an exercise where you listened to a guy talk to a client about a mortgage and you had to take notes on it.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I don't remember there being any technically challenging questions. Just make sure to have an answer for what is your greatest strength and questions of that sort which you should be ready for no matter what the interview is for.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at FDM Group (New York, NY) in Nov 2012
Interview
I recently went in for their assessment day in NYC. I will be starting training in a week.
The assessment day consisted of an hour long written test and two one-on-one interviews. The test is composed of some technical questions, some project management questions, coding examples and questions on them. You don't need more than a first semester programming course to answer the questions about the example code. If you're a project management applicant, I believe they mark you more leniently because they don't expect you to have a background in programming.
My first interview was a technical one where I was asked about the skills I wrote on my resume (if you wrote something there, you better know it - at least somewhat) and I was asked to show some code I had written.
My second interview was more to see how interested I was in FDM in general, what fields I'd be more interested in, how my previous experiences (work + college) affect my ideas about how my career should look in the future, etc.

Question 1
I wasn't ready for questions about skills which were mentioned on my resume but which I had only minimal exposure to.
