You’re lucky you have an interview. All of the EE companies are interviewing in January for summer internships. Be happy someone in EE is willing to train you and give you experience. Any work helps any application because it shows that you can work in the industry without any major problems. Lockheed Martin is a good company and has locations throughout the world. They work as contractors and subcontractors with other large defense and commercial companies.

Here’s the thing: Qualcomm likes local grads. Apple goes on campus and recruits from specific schools. Google also looks for specific students at elite universities and goes on those campuses. Unless you go to a very elite university, I would suspect that you are trying to bite the hand that feeds you.
