Applied online and contacted by HR within a day. Had one phone interview followed by four onsite interviews. All interviews were extremely technical. Interviewers were very friendly and encouraging.
HR was very responsive and followed-up quickly. Overall, the team was inspiring and I had a very positive experience. I look forward meeting the team again in the near future !
Thanks for leaving a review of your interview experience, and I'm happy to see it was a positive one.
We're sad to have missed out on a great candidate such as yourself, though we do hope that you consider us again for other roles after gaining some work experience!

Social Recruiting Manager
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Arm (Sheffield, England) in Aug 2014
Interview
This is a telephone interview lasting around 15 mins. The HR mentioned he got lots of candidates to interview, so he spoke very fast. Firstly, he asked me to briefly introduce my background. Then, he asked a lot of details about my previous projects and coursework, such as "what is my MSc individual project", "what kind of development boards have you used", "What is most complex project using C programming language you had done". Finally, he asked me about the directions that I am interested in. He always showed his interests when I talked about different kinds of technologies. Overall, it is an nice experience.
