Any review or experience about FDM Group (IT service provider)?

FDM assessed my resume & said they are unable to offer me an interview at this current time. So that's ruled out.
On the contrary , if you are really interested in switching career to IT , do an online course from India ($300/-) with recorded classes which you can refer to any time.... Spend 7-8 hours a day in the library for at least 2-3 months practicing what you learned on the course and then apply for QA jobs in the same .
You can fudge your last experience in India as in the same field ( you will get this opportunity only the first time as overseas references are slightly difficult to contact and you can have the benefit of doubt ) but you should know the platform and be able to do the job as without that you would not last on the job.

I would recommend against this unless he can learn his wife's skills and let his wife place him at her office.
Starting a new with a fudged resume will not help in anyway and not in Canada in 2015. There are a lot of people without job.
When I did SAP HR with a desi (who was a B.A. human resources and who was working in HP), he asked me $ 3000 to place me. His reasoning was that he would be asked to hire SAP HR developmers and he will interview me and give me a good grade. He also said that if his company was not hiring, he would be recommending my name to his desi collegues at other companies to hire me. I refused.
So what I say is that, you need to find someone who can do the back chanelling to hire you.
I have already told you the story of a software engineer lady whose husband was a engineer with blackberry. She was telugu. All the telugu PM's of blackberry forced the desi's working with the software dept. to hire and retain her. Though she was a dud, she managed to work for Blackberry for atleast 2 years after the hire. Once you are in IT for more than a year, it is very easy to get further jobs and upgrades. The first entry is the hardest.

Rather than looking for contacts and networking , solidify your skills and knowledge .
If you have them you can pass through the interview and get on with the job with fast thinking .
Fudging you resume though not recommended , but some times esp in your first job when switching career or platform may be the only way for you to get a job.
More than getting a job , your focus should be to have the ability to perform it.

Usually for a full-time position, there are multiple people involved in the interviews. There could be a team lead/team member/another manager, and the hiring manager. In private sector, work needs to be done and usually there are budget and time constraints. If someone is not up to the standard, they will usually know within probation period. It is very difficult to keep them in team since they will drag the whole team down. There can be some exceptions like the example you have mentioned but again they are exceptions.
So someone promising a job for $3000, not really sure what to make of it!
