I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Qualcomm (San Diego, CA)
Interview
Applied in their website and had a phone call after 2 weeks. Then followed by onsite interview. Except hiring manager all other interviewers ( yes all 4 of them) were wondered how could I come this level and they were keep asking how I get this resume inside the company..etc . I can clearly see that they wanted to bring one of their friends and not happy to see me onsite. I can see a typical racism and I was so annoyed by these questions. I am very surprised company like Qualcomm supports this kind of behavior. They only wanted Chinese /Korean guys in their group and do not want any other people. I am sure the guy got selected for this position is either Korean or Chinese.

5 rounds of technical interviews. Some related to coding and others mostly related to profile.
All the interviews ensured the candidate had strong fundamentals.
Subsequently, HR offered and gave enough time to accept the offer.
Started sending Resume and its screening. Contacted by a HR personal and scheduled phone interview. I had a phone interview with the hiring manager. Then I had another phone interview with several peoples, most of them were engineers and seems like same level, juniors, and seniors. On site interview.
