I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Hyderābād) in May 2012
Interview
There were 2 phone interviews with one being with manager about the job details and the second one with a technical person.(mostly basics of your work/signal processing/fixed point).
Once you are through with them, you are invited to Hyd for a series of discussion with about 2-3 managers and 2-3 senior technical persons. Interview for me was about OFDM basics/ fixed point implementations/ some GSM-CDMA basics/ designing an interrupt based system....
Unfortunately, I had lost touch with GSM-CDMA and did not get through the interview
