I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Bengaluru)
Interview
It was a scheduled walk-in drive and there were around 30 candidates. The interview took around 3 technical rounds two rounds were project specific and one round was on basics of digital, System Verilog and UVM etc. After these three rounds there was a final HR round in which they asked for my expectations. Waited for around a month for the offer to come as the offer approval process takes a long time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Basic UVM questions involving m_sequencer, virtual interface, clock generation with ssc and jitter 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.
