Qualcomm had come to my University for two roles – Hardware and Software. I applied for Hardware Role. There was one round of online tests and 2 interview rounds.
Round 1 (Online Test): It consisted of 3 sections with 20 questions in each section and 30 mins per section. You can travel through the questions in a particular section. The marking scheme was +1 for the correct answer and -0.25 for the wrong answer. Approximately 1500 people gave the test for both software and hardware role.
