I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Hyderābād) in Dec 2016
Interview
There was one technical round and one HR round. Each round took around 30 mins. In the first round, the interviewer asked me a few questions on various signal processing concepts (my area of specialization). Apparently, I got through the technical round and was asked to wait for the HR round. I waited for hours but the interview didn't happen. The panel outright rejected the candidates who they were not able to interview because of time constraints (that's what they say). I did not expect this from such a reputed company. Maybe they weren't really interested.
three rounds of interview
1. dsa two qns from hacker rank (1 easy and 1 medium) and projects
2. dsa 1 qn (medium) and a api read and manipulate qns from hacker rank
i got rejected in 2nd round
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Cork)
Interview
HR & Technical, pretty standard. There was a few coding questions, and the interviewer was helpful and they were trying to help clarify the questions. HR was helpful and made a lot of customizations for me
2 rounds with both technical and focusing on computer architecture and performance. risc related questions and how to improve the performance on superscalar computers. the interviewer did not expect full answer but expected to know the basics about superscalar
