One of the pads may not be seated properly. Check all the dust covers though first.

they probably used semi metallic pads when organics are supposed to be used, your getting a little piece of metal that is acting like a record player needle on your rotor

my apolls I thought you would understand that's exactly what I meant but other things could be causing it like edges on the rotors "as the pads wares in they cut into the rotor leaving build up on the outer edges thus causing noises, next is the emergency break sticking on slightly then there is the pistons sticking/cheap break pads/dust covers "quite" a list so a good service to the breaks might be a wise thing
