I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Qualcomm (San Diego, CA) in Mar 2018
Interview
I applied through referral and I had two phone interviews. Mostly they asked about Basics and theory on C and OS related questions. Though it was easy, i messed up in the second interview.
Later I dint get any call or email from them and thought i lost the opportunity.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
most question were based on C and OS related question.
volatile, static, Linked list, stack, queues, context switching, Strings,
they call you and ask you the your availability and typical interview goes for 3 hours if they are interested. They ask C questions and your project related questions. At last a manager comes and takes your interview.
I had 1 screening round with 4 onsite rounds . All the rounds focuses on basic C concepts and additional concepts specific to role. Prepare behavioural questions related to your past work experience
Applied online. Recruiter reached out to schedule 2 technical interviews , 1 was about C/C++ coding , as well as fundamental coding / memory concepts. And another was a deep dive about items on my resume focusing on both technical and other aspects. Thought they went good but didn’t get the offer
