I applied through college or university. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Hyderābād) in Sep 2012
Interview
Round 1 was an online test consisting of three sections. Section 1 consisted of aptitude/IQ question, Section 2 contained basic coding questions and 3 consisted of one out of software,EC(Signals) or VLSI, the one for which the candidte is sitting.
Round 2 was 30 min technical interview in which previous project details, basic core theory and coding questions were asked. Puzzles of medium level difficulty were also asked.
Third round is HR round,which hardly lasts 10 min consisting of the most general hr questions asked in a interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Coding questions are asked even from an electrical or EC students if applied for hyderabad.
My interview experience: The two online interview rounds focused entirely on my resume, spanning from fundamental concepts to advanced technical topics. Both sessions were comprehensive assessments of my background and expertise.
Phone screen - hiring manager was asking about my immigration status, and tone changed immediately. Almost felt unprofessional and discriminatory, I will remember it for a long time to come.
