On-Site Interview with 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.

Hey All!
I have an on-site interview with Qualcomm for the 'Audio Systems Engineer' position. Anybody interviewed for this position before? I was expecting a lot of DSP questions for my phone interview but got quite a bit of analog stuff(amplifiers, opamps common mode rejection ratio, power supply rejection ratio and so on) and some acoustics. I was fine with acoustics and DSP questions but I was a little iffy with the analog stuff. When I asked the interviewer he mentioned that the position work would involve, among other things channel impulse response measurements, board verification and integration.

I'm not really sure as to how I should prepare for the interview. Should I review my analog stuff? If so what in particular?

Thanks in advance!
Mark

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...
