I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Qualcomm
Interview
It was highly technical, meeting with several different engineers and managers all of whom had several questions on a broad range of engineering topics including electrical circuit analysis and semiconductor behavior. The interviewers did understand that a lot of that information might be a bit "dusty" so they would push you in the right direction if you got stuck, but most questions weren't too difficult.
three rounds of interview
1. dsa two qns from hacker rank (1 easy and 1 medium) and projects
2. dsa 1 qn (medium) and a api read and manipulate qns from hacker rank
i got rejected in 2nd round
