I applied for this position online on November 2016. On January 2017, I received a sort of rude response from the recruiter, saying the following: "Thank you for your application to ARM and the time you have taken to provide us with more detail about your background. I do have to say I am disappointed- this posting is a high level individual contributor with at least 7+ years of corporate, not including academic experience. I cannot tell you how much time it takes to review resumes in a role- how applying to roles that are not even a close match to your skills and experience- keeps us from moving the right folks forward in the right roles (this could be you one day). I do truly hope that you will take to heart- that if you focus your search and applications on the roles that you are qualified- you will have greater success and a lot of respect from your recruiting community that is here to support you." I checked the position and there is no mention of 7+ years work experience requirement. Furthermore, the skillset required for this position can be found in my resume through a simple text match. Hence the recruiter's claim that it is not even a close match is completely incorrect -- any qualified recruiter can figure this out. And even if there is no match, it does not warrant a response of how I wasted their time. In my 14 years of professional career, I have never received such an impolite unprofessional response whether I cleared the initial screening or not. Not only this leaves a bad name for ARM's recruitment process, it will keep me away from applying to future ARM positions. Looks like a there is a dire need of proper training of ARM's recruiters. On a different note, I was waiting for the decision of an onsite interview I had recently with ARM when I received this email, which gave me a bad vibe about ARM's working atmosphere. Saying no to that position became very easy based on this recruiter's email.
