      Firmware Engineer Interview

      16 Jun 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Tel Aviv-Yafo
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Tel Aviv-Yafo) in Sept 2022

      Interview

      After being informed about an upcoming salary offer, I received a call from another team leader (in the same group in Qualcomm) who requested that I meet with him for an additional interview. Confused by the sudden change, I decided to contact the hiring manager to inquire about the situation. To my surprise, the team leader who had initially contacted me reprimanded me for "circumventing authority." What was supposed to be a face-to-face interview turned into a bewildering and disheartening scolding session. Ultimately, despite being assured that it was merely a step to determine the specific team placement, I did not receive the promised job offer. Later when I tried to call again to the hiring manager (who promissed that anyway I'll recieve salary offer) - he ignored my calls

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Boulder, CO
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Boulder, CO) in Feb 2024

      Interview

      I had applied through Qualcomm's job portal and then a team member reached out to me. After asking if I was still interested he got me in touch with an HR to schedule the initial interview. It was pretty quick. First round consisted of resume review and basic C questions such as bit manipulation and pointers.

      Question 1

      They asked me about an RF Transceiver interfacing project that I had worked on.
