J'ai passé un entretien chez Qualcomm (San Diego, CA) en mars 2024
Entretien
5 rounds. Pretty straightforward for the most part.
1st screening round by manager, followed by 4 technical rounds. This was a hardware engineering role, so the technical rounds were focused on simulation infrastructures, queuing theory and computer architecture
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Techniques to improve LLC performance. Memory controller design, etc
Good. Technical details were discussed clearly, together with my past projects and relevant domain knowledge. The interview was well structured and focused, with questions that allowed me to present my experience, technical background, and problem-solving approach in a coherent way.
Posso dizer que num geral positiva, processo rápido, em uma semana foi realizado. Perguntas de nível médio, bem técnicas mesmo e assertivas. Entrevistadores simpáticos, duração longa de entrevista, mas foram ok.

All technical rounds focus on pointers, threads, semaphores, mutexes, memory management, and debugging/output questions. DSA is must.
