2 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: I was targeting Qualcomm from the beginning and had done my preparation accordingly. It had a written test which consisted of three sections. Through the written test, they shortlisted only 14 people for the interview, which consisted of three rounds , 2 were technical and 3rd was HR interview. I had extensively prepared for the interview with the help of resources provided by the SPO and was able to clear it
General Tips: 1. According to me, one must be clear where does one actually want to go after graduation.
2. In my case I feel I was lucky enough to realize by the third year that my inclination was towards core sector and hence prepared accordingly.
3. I had kept CAT and Software profile companies as my back up option.
4. I believe that joining CL is a good idea especially if one is targeting Non-core firms as it helps in Quant and Aptitude preparation and giving CAT keeps the MBA option open as well.
5. Rest I feel that one can crack the interview of any company that one (realistically) targets, if one prepares well .

3 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: Online test consists of 3 parts:
1) Aptitude
2) programming (C/C++, Data Structures)
3) Technical.
No negative marking. Apti and programming parts were easy. There were three different technical sections forthree different profiles: 1) Hardware 2) Communication/DSP 3) Software.I appeared for 2nd profile. In this, the technical section had question mostly from DSP, few from communication, analog circuits, digital circuits etc. Each section was given different amount of time. Time for the Technical section was less and I felt that this section was the deciding factor in short listing. There was a CGPA cutoff of 7.5 . My CGPA was 8.75.
Round: Interview
Experience: There were 3 rounds of interview out of which 2 were technical and 1 was HR round. Asked about thesis, term papers, trainings, and question on Digital logic circuits: to design FSM, designing simple logic circuits, delay & its calculation in the digital circuit, MOS etc. Few communication related questions, some puzzles and apti questions. In HR, they asked common HR questions like about yourself, Why qualcomm, training experience, any specific location preference etc. both the technical rounds were almost 40 minutes long and HR was 20 minutes.
General Tips: 1) Should be clear about your M.Tech thesis, B.Tech project, summer training, Term papers. Understand their terminologies and concepts since almost all companies ask about it.
2) For aptitude preparation, solve the material available in preparation portal, can see for online aptitude tests and puzzles and along with that appear honestly in the mock tests organized by SPO. Aim on accuracy and speed.
3) For Programming preparation, revise basic concepts of C and DS, you can use book by Denis Ritche, Yeshwant Kanetkar. Solve online mock programming tests, so you get aware of standard questions andmost common mistakes. Try to write some codes while preparing so that you will be confident writing infront of interviewer, especially of DS like linked list, trees, sorting, searching etc. I did not prepare for OS,but most of the software companies do ask questions on it. Galvin is the standard book for OS.
4) Technical: very vast field includes all the course and practical knowledge you have been studying. Basicconcepts should be clear. Prepare Digital circuit design, Communication, Wireless Communication, DSP,
Computer networks, and most importantly subjects of your interest
5) Do prepare in groups, it will help you in clearing your doubts and also it will improve your interview skills. Mock interviews are also organized for your confidence building.
