      Hardware Engineering Interview

      Feb 17, 2020
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Qualcomm in Feb 2020

      Interview

      I had a Skype interview which lasted for 60 min almost . There were 3 interviewers and they had given me the control of their screen . As the interview started one of them gave me an overview of what work is being done in the company for the position which I am being interviewed for . This explanation was highly technical, I could get half of the terms. After that they opened a presentation, I thought they must be explaining something in more detail but there were questions in that ppt and they started asking questions. Overall the process was smooth and conversations were healthy .

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      Write a code in C to find number of bits between two integers .
      Answer question

      Question 2

      In the second question they made me understand a networking process and asked a question on similar process . This was totally not related to my background or current field , which I think was pretty odd for them to be asking !
      Answer question
