Drug Testing policy at Qualcomm - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

Not to be overtly sketchy here but...

Does anyone know if there is a drug test screen that new hires at Qualcomm have to go through?

If so is it done on site or before arriving? Basically how much time is there between being hired and taking a drug test?

Appreciate it.

Looks like we have a potential junkie here?!
Could that be?

Well I think that is a bit harsh for the occasional joint. Calms the nerves.

I was in Qualcomm for a bit. No drug testing was ever done on me or anyone I know there.

Maybe they think drugs will help people come up with good ideas. Who knows.

Go about 45 posts down and you'll find a post called "Qualcomm Interview."
Their interviews are technical.
Good Luck.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
