I applied online. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Boulder, CO)
Interview
Got an email from an HR representative from Qualcomm for a phone interview for the Embedded Software Engineer position. The interview took place a week later, and overall it was an interesting interview considering I did not have an embedded system background. It consisted of two parts, embedded systems and software. Did okay in both parts, but lapsed then it mattered most.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Was given a program in C and asked to figure out how it works. It required in depth analysis and was mainly based on pointers. I did answer correctly the working, but failed to answer when asked how the program related to embedded systems. In hindsight, it seems simple, but I guess its all in the moment.
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Qualcomm
Interview
I got a call for interview at my college campus after I talked to one of their Engineers when they visited my college. They asked me some details of the projects that I had worked on, and then they showed me some code snippets where I had to either tell what the code was doing or why the code was not working.
