Next is f2f interview. 1 day 3 rounds of interview. If you clear 1st dey allow for next interview else hr says we will update you.!!
1st round basic coding quest volatile, use cases, bit manipulation, data steucture, pointer. I have ece background. Shanon capacity theorem, gsm, modulation techniques.
2nd round puzzle, c question, low pas filter, adc working.
3rd round debug quest, memory leak, dangling pointer storage clases, previous work experience related quest

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Cork)
Interview
HR & Technical, pretty standard. There was a few coding questions, and the interviewer was helpful and they were trying to help clarify the questions. HR was helpful and made a lot of customizations for me
2 rounds with both technical and focusing on computer architecture and performance. risc related questions and how to improve the performance on superscalar computers. the interviewer did not expect full answer but expected to know the basics about superscalar
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
superscalar architecture and risc architecture. how to improve performance
