Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself. Why are you interested in this role?
I applied online. I interviewed at Qualcomm (San Diego, CA) in Oct 2020
Interview
It took more than two months for anyone to reach out to me. I then was set up for interview with hiring manager. At the conclusion if that interview, I was told I would hear back soon. It was more than 10 weeks until I heard back.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Nothing unusual. Just very standard questions about technical parts of jobs. Oddly nothing extensive about soft skills, which I believe is what sets candidates apart.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Qualcomm (San Diego, CA) in Oct 2017
Interview
on-site interview with 6 people, including the department head, said he'll be in touch in the next few days. It's been now 60 days and no answer. The interview itself went really well, Mostly competent people. Touched base with the recruiter /HR a couple of times and the answer was " everybody is really busy...we'll be in touch soon". I feel I wasted a whole day there, no common courtesy , goes with certain overwhelmingly east asian culture.
