Interview
Talked to a former intern at campus career fair, questions were about projects listed on my resume and why I was interested in Qualcomm. Applied online with a code given to me at the fair. Received an email a day or two after to schedule an on-campus interview. Had the on-campus technical interview, which focused on object-oriented programming concepts, OS concepts, and C programming. A week later I received an offer.
