I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at SAP (Mumbai) in Nov 2015
Interview
The interview spanned across all the subjects, including logic development, operating system concepts, database concepts, questions based on scenarios, puzzles, code optimization. Three rounds, technical, managerial and HR. Technical went on for about an hour, Managerial went on for about 30 mins and HR 15-20 minutes.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was told to write a code, and then keep optimizing the solution.
It was long, but the process was also transparent. The recruiter was also nice, but there were basic questions, so don’t get too technical. I recommend studying basic technical concepts, but I didn’t make it past this round.
I applied online. I interviewed at SAP (Potsdam) in Feb 2026
Interview
Process was 30min get-to-know, 60 tech interview and 1 onsite day. Tech Interview was about reviewing "AI generated" code and making improvement suggestions. Completely doable and fair, but a BIG negative was that I applied with Java and TypeScript knowledge, but got asked to refactor Python code in the tech interview. I did NOT apply for a Python position. I even asked which language would be used during the get-to-know and got told "you will be able to choose". Please let your candidates know if you're planning to test them in a specific languages in order to give them a fair chance to prepare.
