I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Qualcomm (San Diego, CA) in Oct 2012
Interview
A phone interview was set up and questions about my research work was asked. Just couple of questions on static and volatile keywords.
Onsite interview was with 5 teams and all of them were coding questions. standard C questions on linked list, function pointers, priority inversion and so on. One guy asked Math puzzles, I struggled a bit after constant coding. But i picked up towards the end
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Math puzzles were simple, but my brain was tuned in complex thinking and switching to simple mode was bit difficult
I applied online. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Farnborough, London, England) in Jun 2026
Interview
Three weeks after applying, I was invited to a 30-minute screening interview for this Friday. However, only 20 minutes before the scheduled start time, they requested to reschedule to Monday. Given that I had already rearranged my day to accommodate the original meeting, I chose to withdraw my application out of respect for my own time.
I approach interviews spontaneously, focusing on genuine technical discussions rather than memorized answers. I share real experiences from my embedded software projects, discussing complex issues with sensor integration very naturally.
