I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Arm China (Chengdu, Sichuan) in Nov 2021
Interview
1.introduce yourself
2.basic questions about CV: how do you implement the project? biggest challenge ,etc
3.basic knowledge of IC: What's set-up time and hold time? How to balance coverage and speed in design?
4.basic knowledge of layout, like latch-up, nmos, pmos
5.Something about the group
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Can you explain what a CMOS device is and how it works?
What is the difference between a register, a flip-flop, and a latch?
Can you describe the relationship between current, voltage, and resistance? How is Ohm’s Law applied?
Do you understand the basic flow of ASIC design? What are the key steps involved?
Can you explain the differences between FPGA and ASIC, along with the pros and cons of each?
In ASIC design, how would you handle clock domain crossing (CDC) issues?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Arm China (Shanghai, Shanghai) in Mar 2021
Interview
One round of technical interview. I was asked about my knowledge on artificial intelligence and neural networks, including questions on convolution layer, batch normalisation, and on NN quantisation. The interviewer also asked me some general questions on my past experience and my motivation for the role.
