Application
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Farnborough, Hampshire, South East England, England) in Apr 2023
Interview
It was ok. There were multiple people who were asking different questions in the area of expertise they were looking for.
The questions were generic and more to check analytical skills.

Question 1
Past experience and questions related to the job profile
It was a 5-step interview. Four of them were technical and the last one was with HR. The first two interviews were conducted with the Ireland team. The interviewers were great guys. They checked my basic C language and software design knowledge in those interviews. The last two interviews were conducted with US-based engineering managers. They asked both behavioral and technical questions, as well as a coding question in the last part of the interview. I suggest doing some practice on LeetCode before taking the interviews.

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Noida) in Dec 2025
Interview
They gave no idea about overall process. Just calling to scheduling rounds. No alignment discussions. Just kept on taking technical rounds without sharing any details of role. And post all rounds gave an offer way below my current compensation. Overall wasted my time & I would recommended anyone in my network to go with them.
4 technical rounds were there. Mostly general - DSA, sorting & searching algos, some hard leetcode, system design & resume deep dive.
