Cirrus Logic, from its own careers pages
The catch: The bar is about US export control eligibility as well as visas, so some non-UK nationals who already have the right to work in the UK may still be affected; the adverts do not list which nationalities qualify. Interns are expected in the office up to five days a week despite a two-day hybrid policy. No salary figure is printed beyond a competitive salary.
