I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Qualcomm
Interview
After a couple of phone screens, I was asked to come to an onsite interview. 6 people interviewed me; some from marketing, some from sw team, some from QA and of course the hiring manager. Each interviewer grades you separately and then they gather as a group and say go/no go. Of course if the hiring manager is happy with you, your chances are pretty high of getting hired.

Question 1
Why are you suited for this job? What skills do you bring to the table?
Initial screening had a short coding test as well as discussion. Then I had 3 technical interviews from different areas of expertise. Did not get to the HR round.
There was no show on one interview. The scheduler did not respond to any of my emails but suddenly rescheduled after a week. It looks like the interviewer cannot contact interviewees without joining the call first.

Question 1
OS, embedded systems, data structures, testing exercises
Fairly simple. Asking about previous experiences and familiarity with different computing languages. Level of difficulty for the coding interview is medium and easy in lc. But does require you to understand some knowledge on operating systems.
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Qualcomm (San Diego, CA) in Jan 2021
Interview
Initial screening question: 45 minute algorithm, final round with 5 people - 4 technical, 1 HR. Everyone except the HR was rude, they were all Indians. Very mean spirited interview
