  • Q1. Cycle in linked list
  • Ans. 

    A cycle in a linked list occurs when a node points to a previous node in the list, creating a loop.

    • Check for a cycle using two pointers - one moving one node at a time and the other moving two nodes at a time.

    • If the two pointers meet at any point, there is a cycle in the linked list.

    • Example: 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 -> 2 (points back to 2), this linked list has a cycle.

  • Ans. 

    Construct a tree from pre and post order traversal arrays.

    • Start by creating a root node using the first element of the pre-order array.

    • Find the index of the root node in the post-order array to divide it into left and right subtrees.

    • Recursively build the left and right subtrees.

    • Repeat the process for each subtree until the tree is fully constructed.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: I was offered a pre-placement offer from Qualcomm. For the selection of interns we had an online test of 1 hour.
Tips: Make sure that you are thorough with both analog and digital concepts. Books like Gaikwad, Morris Mano and Givone are useful.

General Tips: As Qualcomm is one of the best electronic companies, competition was tough. Getting through was really challenging, but at the end there is nothing more rewarding than getting a placement.
Skill Tips: Try keeping your answers to the point and be confident. There is no shame in admitting that you dont know a particular answer. Most importantly, believe in yourself. Have a strong base in analog and digital. Knowledge in coding in C, Python and Perl can be handy too.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: The first round was a written round. The paper had three sections: Aptitude , C and DSP.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: 14-15 people were shortlisted for the second round (Technical Interview round). Questions were asked on topics like Digital System Design, DECA and VLSI (Sequence detector questions, FSM based questions and MOSFET based questions)

Round: HR Interview
Experience: 3 people were shortlisted for the HR round. The general trend is that, you make it to the HR round, You have almost grabbed the Intern :) . Usual questions like "why Qalcomm?", "What is special about you?", "What are your strengths and weaknesses?" etc. were asked.

General Tips: For interns: Be thorough with DECA, MOSFETS and DSD. These are the areas on which Qualcomm's work focuses on. It will be a plus point if you know VLSI.
For fresh grads: You need to be thorough with VLSI design in addition to the above mentioned topics.
Skill Tips: I went through DECA notes. No need of any extra preparation if you are thorough with basic concepts in DSD and DECA.
1) Prepare your Resume properly. I was asked about each and every project that I had mentioned in my Resume. If you fumble about anything on your resume, it will dampen your prospects of moving forward.
2) For internship selection, there will be 1 technical interview round and 1 HR round whereas for Fresh grads selection : there will be 2 technical interview rounds and 1 HR round
The overall recruitment procedure was Exhausting. It lasted for an entire day.
