      Anonymous interview candidate
      Farnborough, London, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Farnborough, London, England) in Jun 2026

      Interview

      Three weeks after applying, I was invited to a 30-minute screening interview for this Friday. However, only 20 minutes before the scheduled start time, they requested to reschedule to Monday. Given that I had already rearranged my day to accommodate the original meeting, I chose to withdraw my application out of respect for my own time.

      Question 1

      There were no questions asked.
