I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Qualcomm in Feb 2020
Interview
Phone Screen. Followed by another phone screen and on site. On site will have close to 7 to 8 rounds covering various aspects ranging from Design, assertions, coverage, randomization ,uvm,algorithms
Interview questions [5]
Question 1
1) interrupt mask register (10 bits) - Each bit corresponds to 1 interrupt
interrupt log register (10 bits ) - Each bit corresponds to 1 interrupt
Interrupt mask register masks the interrupt from reaching the output pin i.e , the output pin shows 0 although theres an interrupt
Interrupt log register logs the presence of interrupt , but the moment you do a read , the interrupt log reg bit goes to 0 .
Best strategy to verify ?
Had an online call with the hiring manager. 1 hour technical interview, goes like this; my technical past first, then some technical questions, then some questions I had. There can be more rounds. Overall positive experience, kind and professional.
