ARM Holdings is the world’s leading semiconductor intellectual property (IP) supplier. What you probably know is that the company makes lots of microprocessors which go into devices such as mobile phones and low power computers. But wait, there is more.
At a recent Open Day, one of the parents of a prospective student talked to me about ARM computer. In addition to the hardware, a large part of the business writes software, some of which is low-level, but there are plenty of higher-level software developer opportunities in the company. The person noted that the company would love to hear from top-quality students for internship and graduate opportunities.
Anyway, there is a chance that the 2013 opportunities have been snapped up, but I encourage you to have a look on their recruitment site. I haven’t looked at all of the links, but it looks like some of the application dates have passed. If there is a position that really interests you, you could always consider emailing to ask if a late application would be welcomed. Otherwise, you could keep an eye on other vacancies that may come up.
The two links are provided below. You may yet find a great opportunity waiting for you in Cambridge or beyond.

As a side note: What was also encouraging was that the person thought the types of skills we aim to encourage through our course fit well with the extra skills that companies want from prospective employees. These are skills such as the team working and the communication skills in addition to the technical background.
More placements come up – with their remote sensing group.
Closing date is 19th April.

One of our current IY students has sent this to me. He’s working for General Electric at the moment, and says they have three of our students this year. His comments:
“The Jobs aren’t so technical but very good experience for project management and working for a very large organisation 300,000+ employees. Plus the pays pretty good!”
So if that sounds like you, do have a go at this!
