I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at FDM Group (New York, NY) in May 2016
Interview
One phone interview followed by 2 Skype interviews. They got back to me almost suspiciously quickly, but they seem like a fairly normal consulting company. Of the two Skype interviews one was more technical (although just about what I had on my resume), they asked me to describe one of my projects and explain some things about my languages. I haven't heard back from them yet (although it was earlier today).
