FDM Group is to recruit 1,000 graduates by the end of this year.

The IT graduate employer has just reached its target for the second quarter of 2011 by recruiting 618 graduates in the past seven months.

Graduate trainees are offered a 12-16 week programme in project management, application support, development, testing and infrastructure. Graduates then become fully fledged IT consultants and are placed within one or more of FDM’s 200 blue-chip clients for a minimum of two years.

The group add that its Wall Street office has now reached full capacity and it will be extending its employment opportunities across Asia in the near future.
