I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Qualcomm (San Diego, CA) in Jun 2008
Interview
All my interviewers were very nice. They had very good understanding of their field and started interview with telling me about their job profile, job functions etc.
My interview was 80% technical and 20% aptitude based.
I was asked questions on computer architecture, courses I took in my master's program, puzzles.
Lunch interview was also technical as interviewer kept asking me about my internship experience.
I was almost brain dead by the end of the interview :(
