It was a 45-minute phone call with two engineers. They asked me about my current job tasks, many technical questions and finally about my experience in the desired skills of the position.

29 Days of Silence: My Frustrating Interview Experience with Arm Ra’anana I usually don’t post reviews, but my experience with Arm’s recruitment process in Ra’anana — especially for a senior-level role — was deeply disappointing and deserves to be shared. The whole process spanned over two months, starting with a hiccup: I was automatically rejected after missing a phone call while I was abroad. Only after I reached out through an insider did I get recontacted, and things seemed to pick up from there. I went through two rounds of technical interviews, both of which went very well — the interviewers seemed genuinely impressed. That led to an HR interview, where the recruiter asked for my salary expectations, availability, and even a list of references. I was then given a site tour and introduced to the facilities — usually a sign that you're close to the finish line. But the very next day, when I proactively followed up, I was told — for the first time — that another candidate was still in the process and they wanted to finish interviewing them before making a decision. I found this highly unprofessional. It’s unusual to get that far (post-HR, post-tour) and still be treated as “under consideration.” And then began the worst part: 29 days of silence. During this time, I made repeated calls to both the HR manager and the team lead, just to get clarity — and each time, I was told that no decision had been made. Meanwhile, the job posting was removed from both Arm’s official site and LinkedIn — all while I was still left waiting. After nearly a month of uncertainty, I finally received the expected "no." No formal explanation and feedback. This was for the Senior GPU Software Engineer position. I expected better from a company with Arm’s reputation — more transparency, more respect for candidates’ time, and basic communication standards. If this is how they handle hiring, I can’t help but question what it's like working there.
