Interviewed Oct 2011 in San Diego, CA (took a day)
I got the interview by talking to an on campus recruiter. After a few weeks I got the call for the interview. The interviewer asked algorithmic questions, object oriented questions and system architecture questions. Even though I did not get the interview they gave me a lot of good feedback.

Interviewed Aug 2011 in San Diego, CA (took 4+ weeks)
I got two phone interviews. Both were highly technical and went well. Generally, it takes 7-10 days to return you about the interview process.
After that, I have been called for an on-site interview. On-site interview took six hours, I met with 6 engineers, all technical interview.
Unfortunately, I am a research/academic oriented person, and my qualifications did not match with their requirement. Otherwise, company and hiring process is fair.

Interviewed Sep 2011 in San Diego, CA (took 3 weeks)
Applied online via thier career site. Received an email notification after a few days to schedule a phone interview allowing a few days notice so I scheduled it for the following week. The phone interview seemed to focuse on your communication skills as it was just to describe what your responsibilites were and what kind of experience you had. Nothing really to test your techincal skills at all, no scenarios, no quizzes, just your background. You can then ask questions to you interviewer. Phone interview was about 30 - 45 minutes.
If they are still interested in you as a candidate, you get an email to schedule to come in for a group panel interview. Again they request a few days notice for you available windows and again, I scheduled it for the following week. Once notified you will receive an email confirmation for the date and location. During my panel interview, it consisted of the dept manager and a few senior level technicians/analysts. Here they would ask you things based heavily on your resume, how you would handle certain situations, both technical and personal. After the interview you would then see the talent consultant usually in another building to go over the overall experience, benefits and salary. Perhaps a bit premature?
this is where my journey ends as i receive via email that I am not quite the fit they are looking for.

Interviewed May 2011 in San Diego, CA (took a day)
I applied online in their website. I got first round phone interview which was very difficult. The first round is full of technical questions. They will filter most of the students in the first round. After that I got selected for second round, this one was much easier than first round. I performed well but I don't know why I dint get offer.

Interviewed Oct 2010 in San Diego, CA (took 2 weeks)
I got to interview with Qualcomm when they were at my campus. The process consisted of just a single 1:1 interview with an engineer. The interview lasted about 45 minutes and consisted of both behavioral and technical questions. The engineer was very friendly and fun to talk to.
The technical questions consisted of very basic c++ concepts like oops and abstraction. This was probably one of the easy interviews I have had. Brush up on your basics with c++ and you should be fine.
It took about 2-3 weeks before the HR called and made the offer. In general, I found the people at Qualcomm to be very understanding and nice during the whole process.
