Software Test Engineer Interview Experience

December 6, 2018
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied to Qualcomm Government, or I think they're called Qualcomm Cybersecurity Solutions.

The new grad offer was:

  • 100k base
  • 22.5k stock over 3 years
  • 10k relocation
  • 15k signing

Choices for location were San Diego and Boulder, CO.

I had an initial phone interview where I was asked general tech questions (no data structures and algorithms). Then I had an onsite in San Diego where I met with the hiring manager and then four managers or employees. This interview was very behavioral.

It seems like Python is a must-know well for this. The interview was very easy.

Questions

Rate yourself on a scale of 1-5 on Python.

How would you test a class that checks if, given 3 inputs, it is a scalene, equilateral, or isosceles triangle?
