      Software Engineer Interview

      28 Oct 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Bengaluru
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Bengaluru) in Jul 2020

      Interview

      Qualcomm visited our campus on 28th Aug 2020. It was the first company of the placement season 20-21. They hired for both hardware and software profiles and open for both B.Tech as well as M.Tech (FTE and Internship). All rounds were conducted online because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Round 1 (Written Test): There were 3 sections in a written test consisting of a total of 60 questions to be solved in 90 minutes. Please check all the instructions before attempting the exam, as some of us were thinking that it’ll be only 40 questions (based on interview experiences of friends, etc) and they were surprised to see 20 extra questions at the end. It was conducted on HirePro platform – video proctored. Each section had 20 questions and 30 min Section 1(Aptitude questions): Topics like Ages, Time and work, number series, Data Interpretation (6-7 questions), percentages, mixtures, and so on. Practice aptitude regularly as questions were not that easy. Solving questions from RS Agarwal, indiabix is more than enough to clear this section. Section 2 (C/C++ questions): This section had questions from c/c++ topics. Some questions were lengthy (especially questions involving pointers, function pointers), so try to see all the questions before you spend time on a particular one. Do easy questions first and keep the difficult questions for the end. You can expect some difficult questions as well. Do prepare all the topics – structures, union, enum, pointers, references, OOPS, and so on. Section 3 (Technical Questions): Questions from OS, Algorithms, Data Structures were asked in this section. Do revise your Gate notes and gate MCQ’s as sometimes you may get a numerical question from Job scheduling, etc. Overall this test was not so easy, I would say medium level round. So be prepared. Round 2 (Technical Interview 1 ~ 1 hr 20 min): Out of approx 200+ students, 58 were shortlisted for technical interviews. The first shortlisted 23 students 4-5 days before interviews. Later, they selected 35 more students just a day before the actual interview. I got a call one day before the interview. I had very little time to prepare for the PI. In this case, be calm and try to revise from previous interview experiences. The interview was scheduled at 8.30 AM with 2-panel members. (For most of the people, it was only one).

      Difficult interview

      Application

      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 interviewed at Qualcomm (Hyderābād)

      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.
