I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Qualcomm
Interview
The hiring manager asked questions related to my resume and after the questions he followed with live coding questions. Overall, it was a nice interview process. It lasted about 30-45 minutes.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe what a semaphore is in the context of RTOS
they call you and ask you the your availability and typical interview goes for 3 hours if they are interested. They ask C questions and your project related questions. At last a manager comes and takes your interview.
I had 1 screening round with 4 onsite rounds . All the rounds focuses on basic C concepts and additional concepts specific to role. Prepare behavioural questions related to your past work experience
Applied online. Recruiter reached out to schedule 2 technical interviews , 1 was about C/C++ coding , as well as fundamental coding / memory concepts. And another was a deep dive about items on my resume focusing on both technical and other aspects. Thought they went good but didn’t get the offer
