I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Qualcomm (San Diego, CA) in Jun 2019
Interview
Started off with a telephonic interview which is pretty easy and then an on-site interview. Asked different questions about testing scenarios, tools, and mostly resume-based questions. Whiteboard coding in 3 out of 4 rounds. Interviewers were friendly but don't get your hopes high. Did not hear back from them so taking it as a reject because I think their way of rejecting candidates is ghosting them.
