I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Qualcomm in Mar 2010
Interview
It was pretty straight forward i had only a telephonic interview, It was mostly on my resume and the projects i worked on. Then i was some question on Specific algorithm. Since the job was in Computer vision, I was asked question on that.
The interviewer was very happy and he even recommened for the second onsite round. Next day though i get the call from HR saying due to some kind of financial problem/ decision they have stopped the hiring in Corp R&D... haven heard anything since then...
