Hi Folks, Got an Offer from Qualcomm for Software Engineer role, wanted to know how are stock refreshers and bonus and appraisal at year end ?

Was told I’d only have one round (4 interviews), each split 50/50 on case/behavioral. This is for an Associate position and will be interviewing with AP/P/SP level. Is this typical? Since I see most people have multiple rounds.

Recent projects have moved me more towards stakeholder engagement, training, and comms roles. I used to be a BA in industry, what can I do to move back toward that type role and find a new job?

My friend is having 5+ years of db development/admin experience and is currently looking for a job in Kolkata (currently working for EY India government sector project where wlb is a joke).
