I applied through university. I interviewed at Qualcomm
Interview
It was a campus hiring. There was an online test which was of 1.5 hours. It had 20 questions each of Aptitude, C questions and core knowledge. It was of medium difficulty level.
After that there were two rounds of technical interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
For the interview, they asked me basic C questions. A coding question was given to insert a node in the middle of a linked list using C. The platform used was hackerrank.
After that I was asked conceptual C questions related to pointers, process, deadlock, dynamic and static binding, threads and had to give output of some questions which was given.
Apart from these, a puzzle was given at the end.
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.
It will be 3 round interview process with 2 round technical and 3 will be managerial round .
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 .
