4 Interview Rounds
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.
