I applied online. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Amsterdam)

It took two weeks after I applied to schedule the interview. (Virtual)
The interview took about 60 mins, and I was able to know who the interviewer was before the interview, and it was conducted as a one-on-one meeting.

Fundamental Question about ML/AI. For examples, overfitting, gpu distribution, generative models, transformer architectures.
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Calipatria, CA) in Jan 2026
Interview
pretty smooth, nothing harsh. They are pretty nice about you. But still need to prepare for domain knowledge because they may ask technical problems. Just be prepared and sleep enough.

Question 1
resume research background and the paper questions
Technical questions (not too difficult, pretty standard) and then we had an in-depth discussion of previous research projects (the interviewer had read my most recent paper). It lasted approx 45 mins.

They asked me general ML questions (eg overfitting, underfitting), how CNNs work, regularisation methods etc. and some stats (0 covariance vs independence). Then we discussed my recent research projects in detail.
