Interview
I wasn't ready for implementing bite algorithms in Java. just prepared for different things.
I think i implemented algorithms in pseudo code well.. But of course it wasn't enough ..
Tested by three managers of the group of five people total.
It may help to others..
Be prepared to BITE algorithms. Not for string or Linked lists rearranges..

I interviewed at Qualcomm (San Diego, CA) in Jan 2011
Interview
The people setting up the interview were very nice and courteous. The interview was highly technical and concentrated on expert level questions. The posted job was not for a principal or senior level engineer, but they were obviously looking for someone with that kind of experience. The interviewer had a condescending attitude when you didn't know the answer and would not have been a good person to work for. Someone mentioned that the PhDs at Qualcomm look down on people who don't have one and my experience supports that claim.
