Thanks for leaving a review of your interview experience with ARM, and I'm sorry to read that you had a negative experience.
This year, we are integrating video interviews into our Early Careers hiring, but only for the initial screen. Due to the high number of applicants we get each year, video interviews allow us to review candidates faster, more efficiently and to more regions. If the candidate is considered a good fit, we will still extend a face-to-face interview in one of our offices.
Video interviews are still relatively new in recruiting, but they allow us to assess all candidates equally, as the questions/phrasings are the same for everyone applying for that role. Depending on the role, we also have coding questions that assess a candidate's technical capability, which again, is equal for everyone. Video interviews also gives you, the candidate, the flexibility to complete the interview around your schedule, as well as time for you to formulate a response, instead of being caught off guard by a question.
