      Software Engineer - New Grad Interview

      Apr 28, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Qualcomm in Apr 2022

      Interview

      Received an email stating that they would like to schedule a technical phone interview with me. I assumed this would include discussing qualifications over the phone as well as answering questions related to the job posting...over the phone. Instead the gentleman had me write code in a codeshare link. It was not an interview. It was leetcode with someone watching. He was only there on the phone to tell me where he sent the link. I personally feel like I was misinformed on the nature of the interview and what to expect.

      Question 1

      I have 32 bit integer, find the longest sequence of 1's and bit index where the longest sequence starts.
