I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Arm (Cambridge, East of England, England) in Aug 2017
Interview
You are asked a series of competency-based questions which seek to assess whether you are a right fit for the company. You would need to also be able to talk about the work experience on your CV and what skills this has equipped you with.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Arm (Santa Cruz, CA) in Jun 2015
Interview
I called and used social engineering to get to a hiring VP, who gave me fifteen minutes right away. She was the wrong person, but forwarded me to a hiring manager with a job that was a better fit. Three phone interviews over two days by folks in different countries, followed by a conversation with HR. Then a quickly arranged in person interview by associates in the local office. It was all very professional, fast and detailed.

Question 1
Interview questions varied by the interest of the interviewee. In all cases we engaged in a dialog about the relevant technology and experience. The focus was on my ability to carry my end of the conversation and if I had any insights or points of view that I had developed on my own.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Arm (Southampton, Inglaterra) in Feb 2017
Interview
The first step of the hiring process is an online application. You will have to fill in some information about yourself and 2-3 questions, as well as, attach a CV and a Cover Letter.
If you are successful on the first stage, you will receive an invite for an online interview. It is not a live one, but you will have to record yourself, answering some easy questions about your motivation and skills and the second part is 2 questions - first a program, you will need to write in C++/Python and the second - a System Verilog questions (I had to design a simple sequencer system).
The last step is a face to face interview, where you will start with 1-2 motivation questions and then get into technical ones - computer architecture and computing. Relax - if you know your fundamentals it will be fine! The idea is not to know everything but the why you approach a problem.
