I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Qualcomm in Nov 2011
Interview
A thoroughly disappointing experience. I wasn't offered, but I'm not sure if I'd take it anyway. I passed the phone interview like a breeze. During the one-on-one interviews, the phone interviewer barely remembered me. The HR interviewer kept rescheduling again and again and again (he was in a different city, was going to call in). Never had that HR interview ever... no offer after two weeks. Work environment appeared to be too rigid.
