I applied through university. I interviewed at Qualcomm (San Diego, CA) in Mar 2017
Interview
Applied through the university career fair. Got a call for phone interview two weeks after I applied.
Phone interview was 50 minutes long with basic questions about embedded systems and real-time concepts. A couple of days of brush up should see you through this.
On-site interview had 6 rounds including a lunch interview. Lots of questions on realtime time concepts were asked. Make sure you understand the complete memory layout. Assembly and pseudo codes were asked. Questions related to projects (I did) closely aligned with their work were drilled on.

Question 1
Couple of questions on my major (DSP/com) were asked, and I was sort of caught off guard. This I believe had a major impact on the result.
