I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Qualcomm (San Jose, CA) in Mar 2016
Interview
Interview process was pretty neat. It took place in Qualcomm atheros campus at San Jose. The interview wass for 3.5hrs and it consists of 4 technical (45mins each) and 1 HR round (15mins). The questions were pretty damn straight which involved project related questions, programming and some general quesstions.
