      DSP Software Engineer Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Diego, CA

      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      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.

      Interview questions [1]

      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.
