I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Qualcomm
Interview
They visited our campus last september for internship and later i got a pre placement offer.
The first round was a online test with 55 questions to be done in 70 minutes. These were mainly focused on analytical ability , C programming skills and some Data Structure based MCQs.
Then there were 2 interviews : Tech and HR . The first one lasted about 40 mins and the latter about 15 mins . In the tech they focusses on your project .some puzzles and some coding questions relevent to your favourite data structure . In HR i was asked the same general questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The questions asked were not at all difficult but yes some questions can be called as unexpected like the ones based on my project. They asked that why couldnt i complete my project earlier, what were the barriers i faced and what improvements were possible on that project etc.
I applied online. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Farnborough, London, England) in Jun 2026
Interview
Three weeks after applying, I was invited to a 30-minute screening interview for this Friday. However, only 20 minutes before the scheduled start time, they requested to reschedule to Monday. Given that I had already rearranged my day to accommodate the original meeting, I chose to withdraw my application out of respect for my own time.
I approach interviews spontaneously, focusing on genuine technical discussions rather than memorized answers. I share real experiences from my embedded software projects, discussing complex issues with sensor integration very naturally.

In Technical round it would be DSA : LinkList, Bit manupulation mostly
They would ask regarding oops concept .They will also ask regarding question mentioned in resume . It would be interactive .
