Candidate-reported interview process

I applied through campus placements from my university. We first had an online test with 100 questions, 30 aptitude and 70 technical (C, C++, Digital Electronics, Computer Architecture, Data Structures, Microprocessors). After the technical test, I had a technical Interview asking about Computer Architecture, Operating Systems, C programming, Microprocessors and Micro-controllers. Then I had another round with general questions about me. The overall interview process at Arm was excellent.

I applied online and the whole thing took about 2 months. The interview itself was about an hour long and it was a pretty good experience. They started by introducing themselves, then we talked about the job, what they're looking for, and what the work culture is like.

So I had a written test first, then a technical interview, and then a final interview with a senior director. The written test had questions about coding, Signals and Systems, Microcontrollers, and Microprocessors.
